Gosford House

 

This is the home of the Earls of Wemyss and March and was originally designed by Robert Adam. In 1890 architect William created a stunning Italianate marble hall in pink alabaster. The house contains a remarkable art collection, including works by Botticelli, Murillo and Rubens and students get the very rare opportunity to view an original edition of Thomas Chippendale’s Gentleman & Cabinet Maker’s Director.
