Lyme Park

On the edge of the Peak District, nestling within sweeping moorland, Lyme Park is a magnificent estate. Its wild remoteness and powerful beauty contrast with one of the most famous country-house images in England. Owned and managed by the National Trust but partly financed by Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council.
