Ragley Hall
Designed in 1680 by Robert Hooke, Ragley Hall is the family home of The Marquess and Marchioness of Hertford. The Great Hall, which is two storeys high, has some England´s finest baroque plasterwork by James Gibbs. The famous mural `The Temptation´ by Graham Rust is in the south staircase hall, and family portraits by Sir Joshua Reynolds in the drawing room. There are fine collections of Sheraton and Louis XVI furniture and Minton, Copeland and Meissen china amongst others. The stables house a collection of carriages from the 18th century, and equestrian equipment.
