Tabley House is a gorgeous 18th Century Palladian house designed by John Carr of York. Originally intended to be the National Gallery of British Art by the 1st Lord de Tabley, it contains a splendid collection of paintings. These are now supplemented by a collection of furniture and memorabilia from the 17th to the 20th centuries. Famous guests of the past include JMW Turner, Henry Thompson and James Ward, whose works now adorn the walls. The collection, estate and house are now owned by the University of Manchester.
