Goddards

Goddards is a large house in Abinger Common, Surrey, England

The house was built by Edwin Lutyens in 1898-1900 and later enlarged. It was built 'as a Home of Rest to which ladies of small means might repair for holiday' for Frederick Mirrielees. It has an integrated skittle alley.

The property is now leased by the Landmark Trust and is available for holiday lets. It is a grade II* listed building.[1] It is the headquarters of the Lutyens Trust.
