Temple Newsam, Medieval commandry and house museum in Leeds, England
Temple Newsam spans a four-sided Tudor mansion with a central courtyard, surrounded by gardens and parkland across the extensive grounds.
The estate originated in 1086, documented in the Domesday Book, before becoming a Templar property in 1155 and later passing to the Darcy family.
The interior displays collections of fine art, ceramics, and furniture from the 17th and 18th centuries, representing British decorative craftsmanship.
Visitors can access the house museum, working farm, and landscaped gardens through guided tours, with facilities including parking and refreshment areas.
The west wing remains as the central block of the current building, preserving architectural elements from the original 1500s construction by Thomas Lord Darcy.
