Eythrope is a hamlet that falls within the civil parish of Waddesdon, located approximately 6 miles (10 km) west‑north‑west of Aylesbury on the A41 road. The village of Waddesdon also includes the hamlets of Eythrope and Wormstone. In the 19th century members of the English Rothschild family bought and built many country houses in the home counties, furnishing them with the art the family collected. The area of the Vale of Aylesbury, where many of the houses were situated, became known as "Rothchildshire". In the 20th century many of these properties were sold off with their art collections dispersed. Today only Eythrope House still belongs to the family, although they still retain influence in how Ascott House and Waddesdon Manor are managed. In the loss of country houses in the 20th century only Aston Clinton was lost.
