Carlton Towers, Gothic Revival country house in Carlton, United Kingdom.
The Victorian manor spans across 250 acres of parkland, featuring high towers, ornate stone carvings, and symmetrical architectural elements throughout its exterior.
The original 14th-century manor underwent major reconstruction between 1873 and 1875 under Henry Stapleton, incorporating Gothic Revival elements by architect Edward Welby Pugin.
The residence maintains its dual function as the private home of Lord Gerald Fitzalan Howard while opening select areas for public events and heritage tours.
Visitors can explore the property through scheduled tours, attend seasonal events, or reserve spaces for private celebrations including wedding ceremonies.
During World War II, Carlton Towers transformed into an auxiliary military hospital, temporarily shifting from its residential purpose to support wartime medical needs.
