Saturday 7th September

11:00 to 16:00

Discover the four men who designed key buildings in Trentham in the 1800s. Charles Barry is the best known for his designs for the palatial Italianate Trentham Hall and gardens. Charles Heathcote Tatham worked on extensions to the previous more modest Trentham Hall and notably designed the imposing Sutherland mausoleum. George Devey was an eminent Victorian architect who specialised in country houses, but his local work was mostly estate cottages and lodges in the Wealden style. Thomas Roberts, the estate surveyor, was charged by the Duke of Sutherland with designing residences for estate tenants and public buildings with decorative timbering.
