Taken looking toward the South façade of Tyntesfield House.

Tyntesfield is a Grade I listed Victorian Gothic Revival house, set in a Grade II* registered landscape near Bristol. Built originally in 1813 for John Seymour, it was remodelled between 1863 and 1866 by John Norton for William Gibbs, whose wealth came from the guano trade. Sir Arthur Blomfield added the chapel in 1873–75 and Henry Woodyer altered interiors in the 1880s.

The Gibbs family owned Tyntesfield from the 1840s until the death of Richard Gibbs, 2nd Baron Wraxall, in 2001. In 2002 the National Trust secured the estate with the support of public donations and the National Heritage Memorial Fund. The site is notable for its complete survival of house, chapel, gardens and collections, offering a rare glimpse into the scale and atmosphere of a High Victorian country estate.
