Nuffield Lodge


Nuffield Lodge is a house on Prince Albert Road, Regent's Park, London, England. It is Grade I listed.

It was built from 1822 to 1824 as Grove Lodge, and designed by the architect Decimus Burton as a bachelor residence for the geologist George Bellas Greenough. In 1877, it was heightened and converted into a family home by his nephew, Henry Marley Burton. Interior murals were painted in about 1909 by the then-owner Sigismund Goetze.

In 1952, it was bought by the Nuffield Foundation, and renamed Nuffield Lodge. 1973-74 saw a major programme of restoration and redecoration take place. The Nuffield Foundation gave up the lease in 1986, and it became a private residence as Grove House.

In 2014, it was under restoration by Neil Tomlinson Architects, with Tottenham & Bennett Consulting Engineers, and the contractor was Westway, on behalf of the Crown Estate and a private client.
