About this Museum

Tatton Park was home to the Egerton family, and is now run by Cheshire East Council on behalf of the National Trust. The site consists of 1,000 acres of deer park, containing a working traditional 19^th-century farm with rare breeds; an 18^th-century mansion house designed by Samuel Wyatt; the Tudor Old Hall; stunning landscaping and gardens, and an extensive kitchen garden with glasshouses.

Within the mansion is a stunning collection of furniture and fine and decorative art, plus Maurice Egerton’s vast natural history and ethnology collection, which includes more than 220 animal specimens.
