Tyntesfield: Somerset : A Souvenir Guide

A spectacular Victorian country house and estate overlooking the beautiful Yeo Valley, Tyntesfield was inspired and modelled by John Norton in 1864 for William Gibbs, a successful merchant. The mansion is an extraordinary Gothic Revival extravaganza, bristling with towers and turrets. It survives intact with an unrivalled collection of Victorian decorative arts, an insight into life below stairs and a sumptuously decorated private chapel.
