Shugborough Hall, House museum in Colwich, England.
The Neoclassical Shugborough Hall presents a symmetrical three-story structure with seven bays and a central block designed by architect Samuel Wyatt.
The estate, purchased by William Anson in 1624, underwent transformation in 1693 when his grandson demolished the original manor to build the current hall.
The state rooms display collections from the Anson family, including artifacts and furnishings that represent English aristocratic life through multiple centuries.
The National Trust manages guided tours through the mansion, working farm museum, gardens, and numerous architectural monuments spread across 269 hectares.
The grounds feature the Shepherd's Monument, a stone and marble structure containing mysterious inscriptions that remain undeciphered since their discovery in 1982.
