A new rooftop and cellar experience is set to launch at Temple Newsam House.
From Friday, May 8, a new behind-the-scenes tour will offer visitors at Temple Newsam House in Leeds a rare glimpse into areas not usually open to the public.
Visitors will venture below ground into the atmospheric cellars, where servants once bustled, and secrets linger in the shadows. Before, climbing to the top of the house for breathtaking views across the estate and Leeds skyline from the roof.
Yorkshire Evening Post photographer Gerard Binks got an exclusive first look inside...
