Pyrgo Park In The Snow

One of the two iron gateposts that once stood at the entrance to the great house of Pyrgo. The grand drive is now a farm track and the gateposts and a few twisted, coroded and overgrown ornate railings, are all that's left of Pyrgo House, once home to Henry VIII's daughters Mary and Elizabeth. The old estate of Pyrgo Park has become farmland. Crops are now grown where Royal hunting parties once chased down deer.

Walk here on route 21 of the London Loop from Havering-atte-Bower and take a small detour along the farm track to see whats left of the ornate railings.
