BRODSWORTH HALL AND CUSWORTH HALL (Doncaster) - Tuesday 25th June - by coach
*** Now fully booked waiting list open***

Brodsworth Hall - Catch a glimpse of Victorian life at this 'conserved as found' country house.
Brodsworth Hall was built and the pleasure gardens laid out, in the 1860's, as an up-to-date new home for the Thellusson family and their servants. It survived with remarkably few changes until taken on by English Heritage in 1990. The gardens have been restored, and the faded and worn interiors gently conserved, telling the story of the changing fortunes of the people who lived and worked here.

Cusworth Hall - Often described as a jewel in Doncaster’s crown is a beautiful Grade 1 listed building set in acres of historic parkland.
The hall was built between 1740 and 1744 for local land owner William Wrightson. The house was designed by George Platt in the Palladian style. Later additions by James Paine include a chapel and library. It has decorative outbuildings including a brew house, stable block and lodge. In addition it has a decorative garden called Lady Isabella's Garden on the west side adjacent to the chapel. Recent refurbishments have transformed the Hall into Doncaster's social history museum.
