Post-1890
The Duke of Northumberland obtained Albury Park in 1890 and still owns most of the land under the title Albury Estate. The mansion contains 64 different mantelpieces, which were in part the work of Robert Adam. The private areas of the park contain a Roman bath and a cave inspired by the Grotto of Posilippo in Naples.
In 1969, the mansion together with 3 acres (12,000 m2) of land, mostly laid to grass, was sold. The building was converted into private flats that were owned by the Country Houses Association until it went into liquidation in 2003. The house was then sold to private owners, who continued to let the flats, while living in the house themselves. The parkland and the John Evelyn gardens remain private.
There is a public footpath that cuts through the estate.
The storms of 1987 and 1990 caused serious damage to parts of the park.
Albury Park was featured in a Channel 4 television series, Country House Rescue in December 2008, and November 2009.
Fly fishing is possible at Albury Park as part of the Albury Estate Fisheries fly fishing club. Park membership is based on a syndicate membership
