Wyastone Leys, English country house in Ganarew, England
The three-story structure features distinct turrets, a clock tower, and restored interior elements with decorative stucco ceiling ornaments throughout the building.
Built in 1795 by S. O. Attley of London, the estate underwent major reconstruction in 1861 for John Bannerman, a Manchester cotton trader.
The estate transformed into a musical center when Nimbus Records established their headquarters there in 1975, creating the first independent CD plant in Britain.
The property offers guided tours where visitors can explore both the interior spaces and extensive gardens while learning about architectural details.
The woodland above the house contains a 1953 Forestry Commission tree planting that forms the letters E and R, commemorating Queen Elizabeth II's coronation.
