Retford Park’s history extends back to land grants made by Governor Macquarie in 1821. The house was built in 1887 by the Hordern family and in 1964 James Fairfax bought Retford Park. He lavishly re-designed the house and filled it with an impressive art and furniture collection, later gifting it to the National Trust having always believed that it should be preserved for the enjoyment of future generations.
