Gosford House, Country house and museum in East Lothian, Scotland

The neoclassical mansion extends across 5,500 acres of land, featuring grand halls, ornate chambers, and extensive art galleries within its stone walls.

Robert Adam designed this residence in 1790 for Francis Charteris, the 7th Earl of Wemyss, though construction completed after the architect's death in 1800.

The marble hall, rising three stories high, displays French Caen stone and Derbyshire alabaster panels, representing Scottish architectural excellence.

The mansion opens for guided tours during the last week of July, offering 45-minute ground floor visits or 90-minute complete house experiences.

Two original wings of the house were removed due to dampness, leading to their replacement by William Young, who designed similar features for Glasgow City Chambers.
