Sumptuous stately home, built in Palladian style from 1732; the interior was made-over with Victoriana in 1880. There's a large art collection, and an elaborate porcelain dinner service from His Nibs' stint as Governor-General for Canada. There's also an arts venue with theatre and concert hall. House and grounds passed to the National Trust in 1979.
