History

Nathan Mayer Rothschild had rented Tring Park in Tring, Hertfordshire in the 1830s. It was purchased with 4,000 acres (16 kmĀ²) by Lionel Rothschild in May 1872 as his principal country residence.[16] Waddesdon Manor, near to the market town of Aylesbury, was built in the 1870s,[17] Further afield, the Rothschild family owned the Exbury estate in Hampshire, world-famous for the Rothschild collection of rhododendrons, azaleas and camellias, now run by a charity.[18]
