Location of Clewer Park in Berkshire

Clewer Park can be found within the village of Clewer to the west of Windsor in the United Kingdom. Today Clewer Park consists of a small estate of residential homes built during the mid 1950s and a public open parkland.

In former times this land was occupied by the Clewer Park estate. Clewer Park was originally a medieval house. It was modified and eventually bought by Sir Daniel Gooch, the 19th century industrialist, railway engineer and engineer responsible for the first transatlantic cables.

During World War II, the house was used as accommodation for female Royal Navy staff.
