Wentworth Woodhouse is a Grade I listed country house in the village of Wentworth, near Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England. It served as "One of the great Whig political palaces".〔M. J. Charlesworth, "The Wentworths: Family and Political Rivalry in the English Landscape Garden" ''Garden History'' 14.2 (Autumn 1986):120-137) ''passim''.〕 Its east front is 606 feet (180m) long, making it the longest country house façade in Europe.〔''The Sunday Times Magazine'', 11 February 2007, p 19〕 It is also the largest private house in the United Kingdom,〔Guinness Book of Records, 1966, p.175〕〔(Visiting Britain's Largest and Smallest Houses by Various Travel Authors on Creators.com - A Syndicate Of Talent )〕 with of floorspace.〔〔(Wentworth Woodhouse: A vision of greatness - Yorkshire Post )〕 The house has more than 300 rooms with some claiming 365, one for every day of the year, though experts are not unanimous as to the exact number. The house covers an area of over and is surrounded by a park and by an estate of 15000 acres (6100 ha), which is now separately owned. It was originally a Jacobean house, which was entirely rebuilt by Thomas Watson-Wentworth, 1st Marquess of Rockingham (1693–1750). It was later reduced to the status of a wing by the immense scale of the new great addition created by his son the 2nd Marquess, who was twice Prime Minister, and who established at Wentworth Woodhouse an important Whig powerhouse. In the 18th century, it was inherited by the Earls Fitzwilliam who owned it until 1979 (when it passed to the heirs of the 8th and 10th Earls), its value having appreciated greatly from the large quantities of coal discovered on the estate.〔The vast Fitzwilliam archives from Wentworth Woodhouse were deposited in 1948 in the Sheffield Public Library.〕 ==Architecture== Wentworth Woodhouse comprises two joined houses, forming west and east fronts. The original house, now the west front, with the garden range facing northwest towards the village, was built of brick with stone details. The east front of unsurpassed length is credibly said to have been built〔Charlesworth 1986:120-137 ''passim''.〕 as the result of a rivalry with the Stainborough branch of the Wentworth family, which inherited the Great Strafford's minor title of Baron Raby, but not his estates, which went to Watson, including the notable series of Strafford portraits by Anthony van Dyck and Daniel Mytens, who added Wentworth to his surname. The Stainborough Wentworths, for whom the Strafford earldom was revived, lived at nearby Wentworth Castle, which was purchased in 1708, in a competitive spirit, and strenuously rebuilt in a magnificent manner. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wentworth Woodhouse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
