Nostell Priory is a Palladian house in Nostell, West Yorkshire, built in 1733 for the Winn family on the site of a medieval priory. Designed by Robert Adam, the house exemplifies the refined proportions and classical vocabulary of Palladian architecture. Located near Crofton on the road between Wakefield and Doncaster, the house and its contents were given to the National Trust in 1953 by the trustees of the estate and Rowland Winn, 3rd Baron St Oswald, and now operates as a historic house museum. The Grade I listed building remains an important example of eighteenth-century country house design.
