This aerial photograph by Damian Grady, taken from Historic England's extensive archive, offers a unique perspective of this enchanting palace, revealing its grandeur and tranquility. Located in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Eltham Palace was once a favored residence of Henry VIII and his court. However, it was transformed into a modern masterpiece in the 1930s by Stephen and Virginia Courtauld, who embellished the medieval foundations with a stunning Art Deco mansion. The aerial view showcases the palace's impressive layout, with its moat-surrounded medieval gatehouse standing proudly at the entrance. The Art Deco mansion, with its sleek lines and geometric patterns, contrasts beautifully with the historic structure, creating a harmonious fusion of old and new. The expansive gardens, filled with vibrant colors and lush greenery, add to the palace's allure, making it a serene retreat from the bustling city. The intricate details of the palace's architecture, from the intricately carved stonework to the meticulously designed gardens, are evident in this photograph. The reflection of the sun on the calm waters of the moat adds a magical touch, making Eltham Palace a truly enchanting sight. This aerial view serves as a testament to the palace's rich history and the vision of its transformative owners. It invites us to explore the fascinating story of Eltham Palace, a hidden gem that continues to captivate visitors with its unique charm and beauty.
