Upon learning of proposals to destroy the strategic landscape Setting around the Braxted Park leg of the Grand Tour route, our consultant prepared this emergency report.

Braxted Park is a unique and irreplaceable treasure among English county houses, having the distinction of representing the society and mechanics of how the resistance against Napoleon was organised and accomplished within the golden circle of roads and attractions that showcased Britain to the world in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Braxted's many secrets embody the soul of the Enlightenment in connected places as far-flung as Russia, Germany, India and America.

This profound heritage is highly relevant today in Global Britain, and it is vital that it is preserved for future generations to both analyse and enjoy. Some of our emerging research into Braxted is showcased on our company YouTube channel.
