Madresfield Court, House museum in Malvern, England
Madresfield Court stands as a moated red brick mansion with a central courtyard, displaying Tudor and Victorian architectural elements throughout its structure.
The property remained under continuous family ownership since the 12th century, passing through inheritance to 29 generations of the Lygon family until present day.
The chapel, decorated in 1902 by Birmingham Group artists, represents the Arts and Crafts movement with murals, stained glass, and detailed craftsmanship.
The estate opens for guided tours from April to June, requiring advance reservations and offering visitors access to collections of furniture, paintings, and decorative arts.
The British government selected this manor as a potential evacuation site for Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret during World War II following the Dunkirk evacuation.
