Tythrop Park

Tythrop Park is a Grade I–listed[1] 17th-century manor house, set in 51 acres (21 ha) of parkland, located in Kingsey, Buckinghamshire, England.

The property is noted as having installed an early duck decoy, similar to that at the Boarstall Duck Decoy.[2]

It was bought in 2007 for £12.5 million by Nicholas Wheeler (founder of mail-order shirt company Charles Tyrwhitt), and Chrissie Rucker (founder of The White Company).[3] The couple renovated the property before moving in with their four children.[4]
