The Gothic Tower Reflecting in the Lake.

The Gothic Tower and a matching pair at the main gate to Horsley Towers were built by one of the house's early owners, William King, the Earl of Lovelace, to his own design. The design was later described by an architectural critic as "Particularly Violent'. I think the depth and extent of his envy was equally objectionable.

The Cloisters at Horsley Towers

The Cloisters and the Chapel at Horsley Towers were added by the Earl of Lovelace, to his own designs and have attracted much criticism from the architectural fraternity, no doubt peeved by not being appointed to the work themselves. The arches and supporting pillars are polychrome painted to look like brick.

Horsley Towers Front View

Horsley Towers is a 19th Century Grade 11 Listed Country House in the Tudor Revival style, with Romanesque features, in East Horsley, Surrey. The house has a history of illustrious owners who have added to and altered the house to their own taste. My favourites are Ada Byron, Lord Byron's only legitimate offspring who, as an accomplished mathematician, was the first person ever to publish a computer algorithm and Tommy Sopwith, the renowned aviator, whose aircraft factory and flying school were at nearby Brooklands. Horsley Towers is now part of the De Vere's hotel group and offers prestige accommodation and event management.

The in-house Chapel

As with the Cloisters, the in-house chapel at Horsley Towers was added by the Earl of Lovelace, to his own design and both have attracted much criticism from the architectural fraternity, no doubt peeved by not being appointed to the work themselves. The arches and supporting pillars are polychrome painted to look like brick.
