The World from Above

This journey begins at Brodsworth Hall, one of the most complete surviving examples of a Victorian country house. To the south is an area known as the Dukeries, where four immensely rich dukes in the 19th-century had vast estates that bordered each other. In the 1590s the very wealthy Countess of Shrewsbury built Hardwick Hall, one of the most magnificent houses of the Tudor Age. At Southwell, we look at the cathedral, which was begun in the 11th century and is an outstanding achievement of simple Romanesque design.
