Oulton Hall - Leeds

Park and pleasure grounds laid out in 1809 to 1810 in part to designs by Humphry Repton, with mid-C19 additions by WA Nesfield. Chequered C20 history and now split as a hotel and golf course. The De Vere hotel group restored the main building. The garden layout survives in part but the golf course and new development predominate.
