Just discovered this huge mansion/estate right near where I live in
Woking:

Anyone know what this place is, who lives there?
Thought it might be Pyrford Manor but that seems to be a smaller place
1km to the east of this place.
Cheers

I haven't a clue, but it looks like a very nice pad.  Who is rich and famous 
and associated with Woking ... Ron Dennis, the boss of F1 racing team 
McLaren perhaps  ????
