Middlewick House is a seven-bedroom Georgian-style residence near Corsham in Wiltshire, England, whose front range, constructed in the eighteenth century from ashlar Cotswold stone with stone tile roofing, was granted Grade II listed status in 1986. The west wing predates the main façade. Originally known as Middle Pickwick House until the late twentieth century, the building has been modified and expanded throughout its history. Notable past residents include Reverend David Jardine, a dissenting minister in the late 1700s, and during the Second World War it served as a billet for intelligence personnel. In 1995, Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and his wife Nettie purchased the house from Andrew and Camilla Parker Bowles—later Queen Camilla. The Masons have opened their gardens, which contain works by sculptor Simon Gudgeon, to the public for charity, and these gardens were featured in Victoria Summerley and Hugo Rittson Thomas's 2017 book *The Secret Gardeners*.
