Swan & Cygnet - Limited Ed. of 995 LILL3231
$70.00
Thornton Hough, Cheshire
Created by the architect J Lomax Simpson, this
impressive Grade-II-Listed building was built in 1910 as the gatehouse
to the magnificent Thornton Manor, which was bought in 1893 by William
Hesketh Lever, later the first Viscount Leverhulme of Port Sunlight
fame.
Lever had planned more buildings around the entrance
courtyard, but this black and white gatehouse was the only one
completed, as the Great War intervened. Capturing much of the decorative
detailing, our version comes complete with two topiary swans with
cygnets — hence the name!
