Description: A beautiful view of one of the great historic estates in England, the Temple Newsam near Leeds, the largest city in the county of West Yorkshire. Temple Newsam is a large Tudor-Jacobean house which dates from the 1500s, built by Thomas Lord Darcy, situated on over 1500 acres adjoining land. The Temple Newsam has been a home of Lord Darnley, husband of Mary Queen of Scots. In 1622, the temple was bought by the wealthy financier Sir Arthur Ingram, whose descendants lived there for the next 300 years. Since 1922 it is owned by Leeds City Council.
