Shugborough Hall: Secrets of a stately home

Discover the fascinating history of Shugborough Hall in Staffordshire, one of the most complete estates in the country, incorporating a Georgian mansion, estate gardens, farm and parkland. Now owned by the National Trust, it was once described as ‘a perfect paradise’.
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned in 2018 to undertake a detailed survey and recording of the estate buildings and mansion, to understand how it developed over 300 years and help inform subsequent interpretations.
