Wyresdale Park, Grade II listed country house in Nether Wyresdale, England.
Wyresdale Park is a Gothic Revival country house in Nether Wyresdale, set within an extensive estate featuring parkland, gardens, woodlands, and a lake built in 1897. The grounds span several acres and include various spaces for events along with residential accommodation.
The hall was built between 1856 and 1858 by architect Edward Graham Paley for the Ormrod family as a significant Victorian residence. This construction reflected the family's prominence during that era.
The estate shifted from a private residence into a modern venue that helps visitors connect with Lancashire's farming traditions. A working farm on the grounds keeps this link to rural life active and visible.
The site offers wedding ceremonies, outdoor accommodation options, an on-site café serving local food, and access to numerous walking trails throughout the grounds. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes, as the estate is best explored on foot.
The acclaimed artist Dame Laura Knight visited the estate in 1912 at Captain Peter Ormrod's invitation and drew creative inspiration from the setting. This visit connected the place to wider artistic circles of the era.
