Uffington House was built in about 1681 and burnt down in 1904. The house was located around TF 0622 0751 (PRN 33553a). The only remaining estate buildings are the outbuildings and offices, most of which were built about 1845 (the gate piers date to about 1700). {1}{2} Uffington House burnt down in 1904 but the outbuildings, ballroom and orangery survived. Planning permission to demolish these was granted in 1979 and the materials were to be used to repair the estate walls. Demolition took place between August and September. In 1980, of the remaining buildings, the orangery was by far the most important, as it dated from 1845 and is in a most unusual style by Samuel Gray. Its demolition was a great loss. The inner skins of the orangery walls were constructed of local Uffington brick, and unusual long bricks were used in bridging underfloor heating ducts. A long brick from the orangery was presented to Stamford Museum. {3}{4} The surrounding parkland of Uffington House is recorded on the 1888 and 1905 Ordnance Survey maps. {5}{6} The estate was bought by the Bertie family in 1673, although there was already a substantial house on the estate. The house was built soon after, being finished in 1688. The Berties of Uffington eventually succeeded to the Earldom of Lindsey. The house burnt down in 1904 and was never rebuilt. There are some photographs of the interior before the fire. {7}{8}
