Sledmere House

Historic Houses & Building
An architechtural work of art

Sledmere House is the home of Sir Tatton Sykes, 8th Baronet. There has been a manor house at Sledmere since medieval times. The present house was designed and built by Sir Christopher Sykes, 2nd Baronet, a diary date states "June 17th, 1751 laid the first stone of the new house at Sledmere." Sir Christopher employed a fellow Yorkshireman, Joseph Rose, the most famous English plasterer of his day, to execute the decoration of Sledmere. Rose's magnificent work at Sledmere was unique in his career. A great feature at Sledmere is the `Capability' Brown parkland and the beautiful 18th century walled rose gardens. Also worthy of note is the recently laid out knot-garden. Historic Houses Association Member. Opening Times: 2 Apr - 6 Apr & 1 May - 26 Sept: closed Sat & Mon but open BH Sat & Mon: 11.30am - 4.30pm
