A fine Victorian country residence build by one of England’s richest commoners, William Gibbs. A visit to Tyntesfield near Bristol grants snapshots of everyday life spanning from 1844 till our days.

The house passed through many different eras in our social, economic and industrial history and each one has left a trace or fragment unique to Tyntesfield.
