Lyme Park

House in Disley, Cheshire, England. It is partly Elizabethan with 18th- and 19th-century additions by Giacomo Leoni (c. 1686-1746) and Lewis Wyatt (1814-17). The house stands in 530 ha/1309 acres of park and moorland, and was given to the National Trust in 1947. The largest house in Cheshire, it has four centuries of period interiors.

Its collections include tapestries, carvings by Grinling Gibbons, and a collection of clocks. The house is set in gardens with an orangery by Wyatt, a lake, and a Dutch garden.

Lyme Park is managed by the National Trust, but is partly financed by Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council.
