Lodge Park and Sherborne Estate

Lodge Park is a unique 17th-century grandstand built in 1634 by John 'Crump' Dutton for the sport of deer coursing, making it the earliest surviving example of such a building in England. The Sherborne Estate surrounding it encompasses rolling Cotswold parkland with ancient woodland, water meadows and the village of Sherborne. The restored grandstand offers views across the designed landscape where coursing once took place.
