LEEDS CIVIC TRUST

 THE MANSION
 In 1803 the wealthy insurance broker and
later banker Thomas Nicholson bought half of
the medieval hunting park - 'The Round Hay'.
In 1815, after landscaping the park, he
moved into this fine new house attributed
to architect Thomas Taylor.
The estate was purchased for the
people of Leeds in 1871.
