      Built for renowned anglophile James J. Van Alen and completed in 1887, Wakehurst was conceptualized by British architect Charles Eamer Kempe and constructed by local architect Dudley Newton. An exact replica of an Elizabethan manor house in England, Wakehurst is distinguished by its geometric detail. Designed by Ernest Bowditch, the grounds recall the green serenity of an English country estate, with a serpentine drive and footpaths winding under magnificent specimen trees and ending at formal gardens.

       

      Salve Regina acquired Wakehurst from the Van Alen family in 1972.
