The gallery and studio at Broughton House were added by E.A. Hornel. He filled them with his own works as well as his collections of books - most with a local connection, china, ceramics and furniture. A walk through the house is a visit to the lifestyle of a typical, successful Edwardian gentleman.

And don't miss the passionately colorful gardens hidden behind Broughton House.
