Cannon Hall, Country house museum in Cawthorne, England
Cannon Hall spans over three floors with sandstone walls and features multiple exhibition spaces displaying furniture, paintings, ceramics, and decorative arts collections.
The building traces its origins to the 13th century with Gilbert Canun, evolving through generations until John Spencer acquired it in 1660 for industrial wealth.
The museum houses collections spanning four centuries, including Georgian furniture, modern art glass, and an extensive selection of 17th-century Dutch paintings.
The museum operates within 70 acres of parkland and provides guided tours, workshops, seasonal events, and educational programs throughout the calendar year.
The Victorian grounds contain a historic Cannon Hall Muscat grapevine, developed from Greek seeds, which influenced grape cultivation worldwide.
