Tittenhurst Park

This Tittenhurst Park blog is dedicated to John Lennon's home in Sunningdale, near Ascot, Berkshire between 1969 and 1971. The aim is to gather as much material relating to the estate as possible - obviously with the emphasis on the Lennon-era, but also concerning Tittenhurst Park as it was before and after John Lennon's ownership. In addition, there will be posts about and associated with the Beatles, plus any other rubbish I feel like. The blog is purely meant for the entertainment of anyone (assuming there is actually anyone) who, like me, has an unhealthy interest in one particular Georgian mansion. Those with anything interesting to contribute in the way of links, photos, scans, stories etc. please do contact me: tittenhurstlennon@gmail.com
(Legal: this blog is strictly non-commercial. All material is the property of the photographer/artist/copyright holder concerned. Any such who wishes a picture etc to be removed should contact me and I will do so. Alternatively, if someone is happy to see their photo on here, but would like a credit/link then let me know and I'll be happy to provide one).
Enjoy!

John Lennon at Tittenhurst Park: 'White Room' Display - Liverpool

The main house at Tittenhurst Park Estate, the ground floor room with it's two curved bay windows was the main drawing room..featured on the Imagine video. This room in the main house has become known as the 'White Room', I think it's fairly obvious why..






The John Lennon 'White Room' Display Liverpool
An exhibit in Liverpool. The 'set', that is clearly a depiction of the Drawing Room interior at Tittenhurst Park's Main House, in which John Lennon's White Steinway Piano sat amid white furnishings; as can be seen from my still of the Imagine video above, Yoko is opening tall shutters, to allow the light in as John Lennon sang Imagine, exposing the view down to the Diana Statue and John's own lake, that he and Yoko could see from their bedroom window and balcony.
John Lennon's Epiphone Casino semi-hollow electric guitar sits against a wall at the display..

A photograph of John Lennon at Tittenhurst Park 1971 with spectacles sits on top of the piano.
