    Brief history of Tyntesfield

    This remarkable Victorian country house and estate is situated on a ridge overlooking the beautiful Vale of Nailsea, only seven miles from Bristol. William Gibbs bought Tyntes Place - the original, Regency-Gothic house on the site - in 1843. But it was not until 1863 that he began to rebuild it into a full-blooded Gothic-Revival extravaganza, richly decorated with naturalistic stone carving.
