Description
Cusworth Hall, Museum and Park is one of the brightest jewels in Doncaster's crown. An imposing Grade I Georgian country house it is home to amazing social history collections, illustrating how people lived, worked and entertained themselves over the last two hundred years. Following a £7.5 million refurbishment programme (with £5 million coming from the Heritage Lottery Fund) the recently completed Park and Hall is once again fully open to the public.
