Cliffe Castle was originally the home of Victorian millionaire and textile manufacturer Henry Isaac Butterfield. Completed in the 1880s the building was funded by the Butterfield family's industrial empire which included wool textile mills and a shipping business that took British goods to Europe, America and China.
The completed house was a showcase of international art and French decoration. It was the scene of many glittering social events. Butterfield family connections included the Roosevelts of America and members of the court of Napoleon III.
In the 1950s the Castle was bought by Sir Bracewell Smith, a local man who became Lord Mayor of London. Sir Bracewell used architect Sir Albert Richardson to turn Cliffe Castle's gardens into a grand public park and remodelled the Castle to be a free museum for the people of the district.
In recent years Cliffe Castle has undergone a major restoration. Visitors can see sparkling Victorian rooms and furniture, paintings and decorative art. Special galleries deal with natural history, archaeology and social history, all of which can be seen along with the internationally important display of stained glass by Morris & Co. The Castle also hosts changing exhibitions from its collections and the community. Family areas ensure there is something for all ages.
