Uses of The Building
The park came into public hands in 1937. The authorities were able to throw open its doors and Nonsuch Mansion became the centre piece for celebrations for many decades. Providers and Friends carefully preserved and protected the mansion and its story. The service wing is opened by the Friends of Nonsuch on some afternoons.
Nonsuch Mansion was closed due to ownership legalities and a drawn out planning process in 2004. This confusion has been resolved and a new operator is in place.
After careful refurbishment during summer 2009, the mansion is now open to the public as an event venue.

Famous quotes containing the word building:
“The artist must be an egotist because, like the spider, he draws all his building material from his own breast. But just the same the artist alone among men knows what true humility means. His reach forever exceeds his grasp. He can never be satisfied with his work. He knows when he has done well, but he knows he has never attained his dream. He knows he never can.”
—Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)
