From the Woodrow High House
Woodrow High House, which is situated in the Chilterns, has a long history that dates back to the 1600s.
The Tyrwhitt-Drake family, Oliver Cromwell's wife, and his children were famous inhabitants of the Grade II listed manor home, which was most likely erected in the middle of the 17th century.
We know that the Lady Helena Stanhope formerly occupied the property, maybe during the period of the Monmouth Rebellion in 1685.
The home served as a storage facility for armaments during World War One at the start of the 20th century, and during World War Two, Woodrow served as a shelter for Portsmouth's evacuated children.
Since 1945, Woodrow has been owned and run by London Youth.
The 26-acre property has developed into a 120-bed residential centre for year-round usage by visiting schools and youth organisations, as well as a purpose-built recreation facility with a swimming pool utilised by Woodrow Swim School and community adult groups.
Since 1947, HRH Prince Philip the Duke of Edinburgh has served as the patron of London Youth, and Woodrow High House has long been one of his favourite institutions.
Three times, including the 1998 opening of the Woodrow Leisure Center, HRH has visited.
