About the Item

A magnificent antique English 19th century Gothic Revival carved oak fire surround This beautifully designed fireplace is both grand and stunning, it features outstanding quality of carvings, with figures in full relief, gothic tracery, open fretwork and a highly detailed scene carved to the frieze. English, circa 1891 Provenance: Langdale Chase, Lake district, Cumbria, image of building included. Langdale Chase was designed by J.L. Ball, J.T. Lee and Pattinson of Manchester and built as a private house in the late 19th century for Edna Howarth, the wife of a wealthy Manchester businessman. The gardens were planned and laid out by Thomas Hayton Mawson, a landscape architect of international distinction, who was also responsible for the gardens at the Peace Palace in The Hague. Following the death of Edna Howarth the house was acquired by the Willows family in 1914 and it then came into the ownership of the Dalzell family in 1930: they converted it into a hotel. When the house was complete in 1891 it was said to be one of the most beautiful houses in the Lake District.
