Nonsuch Palace, its formal gardens and associated remains, and Cuddington medieval settlement

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Nonsuch Palace and Cuddington medieval settlement stand together as a scheduled monument, preserving the ghost of a grand residence beside an older village in Epsom and Ewell. The formal gardens and scattered remains invite imagination about feasts, walks and daily life, though no public entrance is guaranteed.
The National Heritage List for England records Nonsuch Palace, its formal gardens and associated remains, and Cuddington medieval settlement as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Nonsuch Palace was built by Henry VIII in the 1530s as a symbol of royal power and personal retreat. It is remembered for its innovative design and influence on later English garden design.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
