Description

Guy's Cliffe House was built circa 1751-1757, with substantial later additions in the early and late nineteenth century. The house fell into disrepair in the mid-twentieth century, the contents being removed in 1952 before a roof collapse in 1966. However, the kitchen wing and chapel are still in use by the Freemasons.

Prints OP10088–OP10111 and OP10115–OP10119 appear to have once formed part of an album as they are mounted on similarly-presented card pages.
