Bylaugh Hall, English country house in Bylaugh, England.
The limestone structure features a flat parapet roof decorated with obelisks, heraldic beasts, and steel girders throughout its construction.
Sir John Lombe Bt allocated £20,000 in his 1817 will for building the mansion, leading to legal disputes that delayed construction until 1852.
The architectural design by Charles Barry Jr and Robert Richardson Banks represents a transition from classical Palladian to Jacobethan style in English mansions.
The interior layout follows Palladian principles with a central double-return staircase and efficient space distribution without traditional corridors.
During World War II, the Royal Air Force utilized the building as headquarters for the 100 Group Bomber Support operations.
