Tring Park Mansion

Tring Park Mansion (StreetView)
The Tring Park Mansion houses the School for the Performing Arts, an independent boarding and day school specializing in dance, drama, music, music theatre and theatre arts.

Before it was a school the mansion belonged to Sir Henry Guy. The mansion was built in 1685 to a design of Sir Christopher Wren. In 1705 the house was purchased by Sir William Gore, Lord Mayor of London. In 1786 it was sold to Sir Drummond Smith, a London banker and then in 1838 rented to Nathan de Rothschild. The property was bought by Rothschild's son, Sir Nathaniel de Rothschild. In 1945 the Cone-Ripman School relocated to Tring from London as a result of World War II. The school founded in 1939 eventually bought the mansion at Tring Park and set up shop.
