*************

 

Wynyard Park, sometimes known as Wynyard Hall is a large country house in County Durham, England. The house used to be the family seat of the Vane-Tempest-Stewart family, Marquesses of Londonderry, but it was sold in the 1980s and currently belongs to Sir John Hall, a property developer and builder of the MetroCentre in Gateshead.

Designed by Philip Wyatt and built 1822-28, the entrance front has 13 bays with a 6-column giant Corinthian Portico. The Entrance Hall looked like that of Mount Stewart, the family's estate in Northern Ireland. It has a coffered segmental tunnel vault with apses at both ends and in the middle, suspended from the ceiling there was a large crystal chandelier. The main octagonal centre hall extends the full height of the house and has a dome with caryatids around it and a skylight. There is also a mirrored Drawing Room with a gilded and painted ceiling, and a vast callroom similar to that of the family's London residence, Londonderry House.

The family wing of the mansion was nicknamed the Dukes Wing as it was named after the Duke of Wellington and his visit. This side of the house also held the Duke's Gallery; the place the family housed their famed art collection when not in London.

As one first sees the house you can see many statues in the entrance court outside the house and in the distance there is an Obelisk. The vast obelisk, 127 feet (39 m) high, commemorates the visit of the Duke of Wellington in 1827.

At its height in the 19th century, the Wynyard Estate occupied 7,000 acres (2,800 ha) in Teesside.

The grounds today include a 15 acre ornamental lake, a walled garden, two entrance lodges, three cottages, a former racing yard, and productive farmland.
