Bhaktivedanta Manor [Hertfordshire]

The estate of Bhaktivedanta Manor is situated in the Parish of Aldenham in Hertfordshire, just over a mile from Radlett and four miles from Watford. The presence of the estate was first recorded in 1261. In the 16th Century a Tudor house was built on the site but in 1884 George Villies demolished the house and constructed the mock-Tudor building we see today. It was sold, included 17 acres of land to George Harrison of the Beatles who gave it as a gift to the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), better known as the Hare Krishna movement. It now stands in 70 acres of landscaped grounds and is ISKCON's largest property in the United Kingdom, and one of the most frequently visited Radha Krishna temples in Europe. The house is listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England.
