Avon Tyrrell House, Manor house in Sopley, England
Built in 1891, Avon Tyrrell House features distinctive Arts and Crafts architecture with asymmetrical facades and local materials throughout its four wings.
The construction of Avon Tyrrell House resulted from Lord Manners' £28,000 Grand National victory in 1881, equivalent to £3.6 million in modern currency.
The house represents a calendar design with 365 windows, 52 rooms, 12 chimneys, 7 external doors, and 4 wings corresponding to days, weeks, months, and seasons.
The property functions as the headquarters of UK Youth, providing outdoor learning programs and personal development activities for young people.
After serving as a military intelligence post during World War II, the Manners family established a charitable trust in 1946 for youth education.
