Pictures of: Tissington Hall
Entrance Hall -
Tissington Hall's magnificent eighteenth century Entrance Hall as well as our upstairs Drawing Rooms provide stunning settings for a civil ceremony conducted by the local Registrar (Mrs Jill Banks). The stone-flagged hall, which can host up to 60 people comfortably for the service, is decorated in the Gothick tastes of the taste made popular largely by Horace Walpole and his famous house Strawberry Hill.
The panelling in this room was built at this time in the form of intersecting arches topped with a deep dado with Gothick arch motifs in plaster, a theme reflected in the windows which look out towards the rose gardens behind the Hall. A particularly splendid feature is the elaborate 1754 chimneypiece and in Hopton stone.
