Did you know that Sezincote in Moreton-in-Marsh was the inspiration for the later Brighton Pavilion? The house designed by Samuel Pepys Cockerell with its Mogul styling, minarets, and onion-dome, was built in 1810, five years before Nash began his work (in the best possible taste) in Brighton. Repton provided the garden design for Sezincote, again reflecting the influence of the sub-continent.
