Elvaston Castle
This is Elvaston Castle, a Gothic masterpiece designed by James Wyatt in the
1800s for the Earl of Harrington. The house is located about 4 miles
south-east of Derby and is set in over 200 acres of woods, parkland and
formal gardens. The park is now owned and run by Derbyshire County Council.
There are many other attractions in the park such as lakes, children's
playgrounds, tearooms and a caravan site. The parkland plays host to many
events throughout the year; one of the most popular for steam heritage fans
is the Elvaston Castle Steam Rally.
