Lonely Planet review for Wollaton Hall

Built in 1588 by Sir Francis Willoughby, land and coal-mine owner, Wollaton Hall is a magnificent example of Elizabethan architecture at its most extravagant. Architect Robert Smythson was also responsible for the equally avant-garde Longleat in Wessex. It was undergoing restoration works at the time of research; call ahead to check opening hours. The hall also houses a mediocre natural-history museum.
