HISTORICAL NOTE: The Park had been laid out by 1833 by its owner Thomas Billings as an oval tree-lined drive with a central park which for a short period in the mid-C19 became a zoological garden. In 1839 the development was bought by Samuel Daukes who continued the building. This is one of the principal developments influenced by White's and Nash's design for Regent's Park in London (1809-11). Until 1895 Broadlands House was known as Fulwood House. Its C19 owners included Genl C Fuller of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, and Surgeon Major J Newton of the Indian Medical Service. During the Second
World War it was owned by St Mary's College and occupied by the Ministry of Labour.
