Your West Midlands Wedding- February / March 2021 (Issue 72)

 Lilleshall House and Gardens is nestled in secluded surroundings in the Shropshire countryside. Built in 1831, the property is the former home and hunting lodge of the Duke of Sutherland and overlooks the Grade II listed Capability Brown inspired gardens. The venue is a grand stately heritage site with historical features from oak- panelled walls in the reception area to original fireplaces and decorative ceilings in the 29 newly refurbished bedrooms. Couples will approach from the north via the Golden Gates which are exact replicas of those adorning Buckingham Palace. The 70-foot high obelisk visible from Chapters and standing on Lilleshall Hill was built in 1833 in memory of the 1 st Duke of Sutherland.
