Melbourne Hall, Georgian country house in Melbourne, Derbyshire, England.
The formal gardens feature sweeping lawns, intricate parterres, stone sculptures, and multiple fountains surrounded by precisely trimmed topiary and flowering borders.
The estate belonged to Sir John Coke in 1629 and later became home to William Lamb, Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1835 to 1841.
The extensive grounds contain over twenty Grade I listed features, including lead sculptures by John Nost and an iron arbor crafted by Robert Bakewell.
The estate opens its gardens from April to September, with guided tours of the house available on specific dates throughout the summer months.
The lead Vase of the Seasons from 1705 stands as one of the finest examples of early eighteenth-century garden ornaments in England.
