Another
National Trust property I’ve visited recently is Ormesby Hall. Ormesby Hall is
a grade I listed building in Ormesby, Middlesbrough. The manor house was built
in the 18th century in the Palladian style, with work being
completed in 1754. The house contains significant plasterwork, a Victorian
kitchen and laundry areas and gardens, with my favourite room being decorated
in sky blue and white. There are also a couple of rooms upstairs which house a model
railway which is open to the public. The house and grounds were opened by the
National Trust in 1983.
There are parkland and gardens to walk around – you can even play croquet on the lawn. The beautiful sky blue delphiniums were the first to catch my eye as we explored the grounds.
