aerial photograph of Burton Constable Hall Yorkshire England UK. While most of what we see to day is Elizebethan, parts of the home date back to the 12th Century when a Pele Tower was built to defend the local area.
The grounds of the house originally contained a medieval field system and village which was replaced by a deer park in 1517. The grounds were landscaped by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown between 1772 and 1782, however the the angle of this photograph shows the outline of the medieval archaology.
