Thomas Coke, an amateur architect, inherited and helped design the impressive gardens. It eventually became the home of William Lamb, the 2^nd Viscount Melbourne – who was Queen Victoria’s Prime Minister – but he ended up divorcing his wife after it became known she had been seeing Lord Byron… – want to learn more about this then go and visit Melbourne Hall.
