Private Estate - Shropshire
McMillan & Holder were commissioned to assist in the completion of stone masonry work to a beautiful grand country house on the outskirts of Shrewsbury in Shropshire.
The house has a varied and interesting history. George Stuart prepared plans for Rowland Wingfield in 1780 for the remodelling of the hall in a severe Neo-classical style. The grounds were also re-styled in the contemporary fashion of the day. The hall was then demolished around 1957.
A new hall has since emerged combining the best of Georgian and Victorian styles. The building is complete with plinth course, portico entrances and door architrave surrounds, Ionic columns, window surrounds and string course, crowned with an elegant and substantial cornice and parapet blocking course.
