Calke Abbey


Calke Abbey

Calke Abbey is a country house near Ticknall, Derbyshire, England, and a property of the National Trust. The site was an Augustinian priory from the 12th century until its dissolution by Henry VIII.

"The present building called Calke Abbey was never actually an abbey, but is rather a Baroque mansion, built between 1701 and 1704. The name "Calke Abbey" was given to the house in 1808." - Wikipedia
