6681 Built in 1543 for Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge is probably the last remaining royal hunting grandstand in the world. I may have used the building as she hunted in the forest on a number occasions. A superb example of timber framed architecture standing in the ancient royal forest of Epping among magnificent old oaks. Displays within the building explain its history and former uses.
