Lathom House, English country house in Lathom, England
The west wing of Lathom House stands as a testament to 18th-century Palladian architecture with its symmetrical design and classical proportions.
During the English Civil War of 1644, Charlotte Stanley and 300 defenders held Lathom House against Parliamentary forces until Prince Rupert arrived.
The residence embodied the social hierarchy of English estates, where noble families maintained extensive households with servants, gardeners, and local workers.
The remaining section of Lathom House contains residential apartments, following the 1920 sale of the estate to a London business group.
The grounds incorporate Humphry Repton's landscape design principles, featuring an extensive deer park that surrounded the original mansion.
