Cassiobury House, English country house in Watford, England.

The Neoclassical architecture of Cassiobury House featured extensive ornate spaces, grand staircases, and detailed wooden panels throughout its interior design elements.

Built in 1546 for Sir Richard Morrison, the estate served as the residence for the Earls of Essex until financial difficulties led to its demolition in 1927.

The Yellow Room of Cassiobury House displayed the refined taste of English nobility through its period furniture, paintings, and decorative elements.

The location where Cassiobury House stood is now Temple Close, while Watford Museum exhibits photographs documenting the building's former grandeur.

Queen Adelaide, widow of King William IV, made Cassiobury House her temporary residence and received Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as guests.
