Worksop Manor, Nottinghamshire, 1755. North aspect of the first building for the Universal Magazine. Worksop Manor was the seat of the late Duke of Norfolk. The older building was undergoing alterations, which had cost the Duke of Norfolk £22,000 and which were nearly completed, when on October 20th, 1761, the whole building was burnt to the ground. The grounds were once part of a medieval parkland. Leland, writing in the reign of Henry VIII, says: By Worksoppe is a parke of six or seven miles in compace, longging to the Earl of Shrewsbury.
