Temple Newsam (Explore - 26 August, 2021 - #169)

Temple Newsam, is a Tudor-Jacobean house with over 42 rooms located in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, with grounds landscaped by Capability Brown.

The estate is almost 1,000 acres including parkland, lakes and a farm and the grounds of Newsam were first recorded in the Doomsday book in 1086.

Built by Thomas Lord Darcy between 1500 - 1520. It was the largest house of its day in Yorkshire. During its long history there have been many important owners. It was seized by Henry VIII, after he beheaded Darcy in 1537. Henry gave the house to his niece, Margaret, as a wedding present when she married Matthew Lennox. Their a son, Henry Lord Darnley, was born at Temple Newsam House in 1545. The house was seized for the second time by Queen Elizabeth I when Darnley married Mary Queen of Scots.

In the sixteenth and seventeenth century the Ingram family bought, changed and rebuilt many parts of the house and in WW1, part of the house was converted to a Voluntary Aid Detatchment for wounded soldiers. The estate was sold to Leeds City Council for £35,000 in 1922, with the house included as a gift. The house contents were auctioned off and the house was empty for a period of time, before being used as a sculpture gallery in the 1940s. After this, the process of restoring the house began, returning many of the impressive interiors to their historic appearance from different centuries.
