Birdsall House, Grade II* listed country house in Birdsall, England.

The three-storey central building features five bays and connects to two-storey side wings through single cell units, constructed with ashlar and Welsh slate roofs.

The property began as a monastery estate before Henry VIII's dissolution, after which the Sotheby family constructed the initial Tudor house in the late 16th century.

The residence transformed from a Tudor structure to a Georgian mansion when Elizabeth Sotheby married Thomas Willoughby, establishing a legacy that continues with current family ownership.

The estate now functions as a wedding and event venue, with the newly renovated Victorian Kitchens accommodating up to 200 guests for various celebrations.

Birdsall House earned distinction as the first building in England to implement a private gas system, marking a technological advancement in residential architecture.
