Caption

The Library is one of the interiors created by Frederick Leyland, tenant of the Hall 1867-77. The fireplace is a wonderful piece of gilded carving, inspired by 16th-century motifs in the Great Hall and incorporating Dutch Delftware tiles of c.1800. The William Morris wallpaper of ‘Pomegranate’ pattern, first printed in 1864, is one of several original Morris papers surviving at Speke from the late 1860s.
