Tyntesfield is a Victorian Gothic Revival estate near Wraxall, Somerset, England, near Nailsea, seven miles from Bristol.
The house was acquired by the National Trust in June 2002 after a fund raising campaign to prevent it being sold to private interests and ensure it be opened to the public.
William Gibbs purchased Tyntes Place, the original Regency-Gothic house that stood on the site, in 1843. In 1863 he began the full-blown rebuilding to create the Gothic Revival extravaganza that now stands; the cost was £70,000. Notable elements of the house include glass by Powell and Wooldridge, mosaics by Salviati, and ironwork by Hart, Son, Peard and Co. The original architect was John Norton. In the 1880s further alterations were made by architect Henry Woodyer. The chapel was designed by Arthur William Blomfield in the 1870s.
The appeal by the National Trust collected £8.2 million from the public in just 100 days and the Trust also received the largest single grant ever by the National Heritage Memorial Fund (at £17.4 million), which caused some controversy. The National Lottery has earmarked a further £25 million for the major conservation work that is needed.
Since 2004 staff have been cataloging the contents of the house, which had been collected by the four generations of the family. By 2008 a total of 30,000 items had been listed including an unexploded Second World War bomb, a jewel-encrusted chalice, a roll of 19th-century flock wallpaper and a coconut with carved face and hair. A further 10,000 items are being catalogued and photographed.

I will probably tweak this a little bit to perfect it (especially after I see a first print) but I am pretty happy with this as the layout and concept!

Flickr, you tell us the front of the house is somewhere in London, the back in Hounslow - Isleworth would be better.

Lanhydrock is an impressive historic house in Cornwall. Built of local grey slate and granite around an inner courtyard, the house dates to 1640, though most of the current building was the result of rebuilding after a fire in 1881. Survivors from the earlier house are the impressive gatehouse, the 2-story porch, and north range, with a 116 foot long gallery.
Within the gallery is a superb 17th century plasterwork ceiling, illustrating scenes from the Old Testament mixed with depictions of unusual beasts.
Lanhydrock was the property of the Robartes family from 1620 to 1969, when the estate passed to the National Trust. The house is huge, and 50 rooms are open to visitors. The Trust has recreated the atmosphere of an Edwardian country house at Lanhydrock, and the restored kitchen and servant's quarters make a distinctive contrast with the glittering family rooms. A further contrast is provided by the children's nursery rooms.

A sign of trust. My dog Zima, a mixed breed who will celebrate her 11th birthday in June is tight up against my leg in the veteran’s waiting room. As long as I am there she knows she is safe and no one will harm her. Her ‘Wellness Check” was great; since she has lost the eleven pound she had gained eating table food too often. Now her diet is 95% dry dog food suggested by her vet. 1/24/2011
