'Byefleet Park', 1912, (1914). Byfleet Manor is a Grade II listed house in Byfleet, Surrey. Byfleet Manor has been used as a filming location in three television series, most notably Downton Abbey. Byfleet Manor's precursor was a royal hunting lodge given by Edward II to Piers Gaveston, his reputed lover. Anne of Denmark, the house's last royal owner commissioned a new house here in 1619 of which the front walls and gate piers date. In 1672 the lands were granted to Lord Hollis and others to hold in trust for Queen Catherine of Braganza for her life, and afterwards for Charles II of England and his heirs. The home remained virtually unaltered until 1905, when it was restored and enlarged with the addition of asymmetrical wings. From A Pilgrimage In Surrey, Vol. 1, by James S. Ogilvy.
