有人说,在这里约翰·约翰国王受到一堆核桃树的保护和河流的缓和曲折,使敌人的长弓不在范围之内,遇到了他的叛逆男爵(他住在对岸)河流在Runnymede草甸上)并签署了《大宪章》。
今天,一块石头专门放置在特制的宪章室中,该室是乔治·西蒙·哈科特,乔治庄园大主教和县治安官于1834年建造的麦格纳塔岛主要二级保护财产的一部分。包括约翰·约翰(John King)的顶峰和为维护《大宪章》(Magna Carta)安全而选出的25个贵族,其中包括理查德·德·蒙特菲谢特(Richard de Montfichet),他是该岛的所有者,与邻近的Ankerwyke一起成为了Wraysbury庄园的所在地,后者是拥有2000年历史的紫杉的所在地据说,亨利八世在1530年代与安妮·伯林(Anne Boleyn)进行了首次会面,因此这里也与王室有着紧密的联系。
主要财产的其余部分,尽管需要进行现代化改造(需要适当的规划和建筑法规同意),却具有相当大的魅力。宏伟的餐厅设有令人惊叹的错综复杂的木制镶板,可容纳16人,并设有开放式壁炉,并在广阔的草坪,游泳池旁具有开放的外观,并包括伊丽莎白二世女王于1974年种下的一棵树,以纪念她参观这座历史悠久的景点在她从温莎皇室进步期间。
宽敞的走廊通向迷人的接待室和厨房/早餐室,这是书房。
一楼有六间卧室,主卧室和一间家庭浴室。位于房屋对面的第二间小屋设有接待室,厨房/早餐室,一/两间卧室和一间浴室。
场地大部分铺设在广阔的草坪,修剪的树木,紫杉和几棵重要的树木上,而泰晤士河约390米的河岸临街则为大型下水或游船提供了理想的系泊设备。一座小桥将岛与大陆连接起来,从那里陆路通往温莎,希思罗机场和伦敦。

It is cited that it was here that King John, with the protection of a circle of walnut trees and gentle curve of the river, which would keep enemy long bows out of range, met with his rebellious barons (who had camped on the opposite bank of the river on Runnymede meadow) and signed the Magna Carta.
A stone lies today in a specially built Charter Room which forms part of the main Grade II Listed property on Magna Carta Island built by George Simon Harcourt, Esq Lord of the Manor and the Sheriff of the County in 1834. The Charters Room's walls are hung with the crest of King John and those of the 25 barons elected to keep the Magna Carta safe including Richard de Montfichet who was the owner of the island which formed part of the Manor of Wraysbury along with neighbouring Ankerwyke, site of the 2,000 year old yew which also has a royal connection, as it is rumoured to be where Henry VIII conducted his first meetings with Anne Boleyn in the 1530's.
The remainder of the main property , whilst in need of modernisation, (subject to the appropriate planning and building regulation consents) has considerable charm. The magnificent dining room with amazing intricate wooden panelling, seats up 16 people and has an open fireplace and an open aspect across the expansive lawn, swimming pool and includes a tree planted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1974 to mark her visit t this highly historic site during her Royal Progress from Windsor.
The generous hallway leads through to a charming reception room and kitchen/breakfast room off which is the study.
On the first floor are six bedrooms, the master bedroom, as well as a family bathroom. A secondary cottage, located opposite the house, has a reception room, kitchen/breakfast room, one/two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The grounds were mostly laid to an expansive lawn, topiary, yew trees and several important trees, whilst approximately 390 metres of river bank frontage to the Thames provides an ideal mooring for a large launch or river pleasure boat. A small bridge connects the island to the mainland from where road links lead to Windsor, Heathrow and London.
