About

Step inside Stansted House and support the work of the Army Benevolent Fund.

Upon arrival, welcome drinks will be served in the beautiful Main Hall and you will have access to the Ponsonby Room, showing the history and military links of the Ponsonby family, including medals and swords from the Battle of Waterloo.

As you make your way through this magnificent stately home, you might like to pause in the Music Room, where you will find a pianist playing occasional music. In the Blue Drawing Room, you will find the glorious south-facing terrace with views to the Solent.

Volunteer stewards will also be around the House to tell you fascinating anecdotes about the estate and the Earls of Bessborough, the last family to reside in the property.

A raffle will be held throughout the evening along with a spectacular demonstration by the Stansted Park Field Gun Team.
