Lecture éditoriale
The estate attributes Kelmarsh Hall to James Gibbs, commissioned by William Hanbury, and dates completion to the early 1730s. It distinguishes the present building from the earlier Jacobean manor that stood on the estate.
Later owners altered the service accommodation and domestic rooms. The institution identifies Nancy Lancaster's influence on the interior colour, furnishing and gardens as especially important to its twentieth-century character. The visitor offer combines principal rooms with upstairs exhibitions and below-stairs spaces interpreting servants' work.
Our editorial reading: architectural formality and domestic comfort meet here. Comparing the reception rooms with the service areas gives a fuller account of country-house life than concentrating on decoration alone.
