Stourhead

The Palladian villa of Stourhead was built in 1721-4 by Colen Campbell for Henry Hoare, a London banker. Henry Hoare II, who together with his architect Henry Flitcroft was responsible for Stourhead’s spectacular garden, brought together the nucleus of the present collection of paintings and sculpture. In 1792 Richard Colt Hoare added two pavilions to Campbell’s original house, one for the picture collection and the other for his library. After a fire damaged the main block in 1902, a local architect made a series of unsound alterations. The roof timbers began to sag and Sir Aston Webb, the designer of Admiralty Arch and the east front of Buckingham Palace, was called in to remedy the situation. Inside, there is a mixture of Neo-classical decoration and heavy Edwardian plasterwork.
