There have been some beautiful autumn scenes out in the gardens here at Wentworth Woodhouse this week ☀️🍂🍁🌳

Visit Wentworth Woodhouse this weekend and prepare to be wowed by the antiques, fine art, sculptures and furniture on display with GallowayFairs.
One of the items being exhibited is this exquisite Rockingham Table fitted with Rockingham porcelain plaques.
This table first appeared on the open market at Tennants Saleroom in Richmond on 21 November 1979. It was fully described and was stated to have reputedly been part of the Rockingham Castle collection until 1948/49 when it w...ent into a private collection.
The general consensus is that the table was constructed under the direction of Dale c.1838 at the Rockingham Works using a fine Geo 11 tripod base from the Castle collection. The new table top was fitted with six radiating Rockingham porcelain plaques of incredible quality showing alternate panels of butterflies and flying insects and fine flower bouquets within cartouches of profuse gilding alongside a royal blue ground.
All existing documentation will be shown with the table at the antiques fair on 23/24/25 November at Wentworth Woodhouse.

We are incredibly proud to have hosted the launch of the Athena International Awards this afternoon. Organised by Women in Business, part of the Barnsley and Rotherham Chamber of Commerce, these awards recognise and honour exemplary leaders, who lead with integrity and values, in addition to supporting women achieve their leadership potential.
Today's event celebrated the life of Lady Mabel of Wentworth (1870-1951), a socialist, an educationalist, a feminist and influential c...hange agent of her time. She founded the Lady Mabel College at Wentworth Woodhouse (1950-1979) to train female education teachers.
Ten ladies who attended the Lady Mabel College, and now all volunteer at Wentworth Woodhouse, were invited to speak and answer questions at the celebratory lunch in the Long Gallery, alongside the women who are now leading the transformation of Wentworth Woodhouse, Chair Julie Kenny and CEO Sarah McLeod.
