This image is exclusive to Alamy. Wollaton Hall is an Elizabethan mansion standing on a hill within Wollaton Park in Wollaton, Nottingham, England. It was built between 1580 and 1588 for Sir Francis Willoughby and is believed to be designed by the Elizabethan architect, Robert Smythson, who was the architect of Hardwick Hall. Its Elizabethan style also contains early Jacobean elements. The building consists of a high central hall, surrounded by four towers and was built using Ancaster stone. Remodelling was carried out by Sir Jeffry Wyattville in 1801 and continued intermittently until the 1830s. The mansion remained in the Willoughby family for most of its history, though the the family moved away during the 19th Century, considering it to near to the city, and let it to tenants. Wollaton Hall is now a natural history museum, with other museums in the out-buildings owned and run by Nottingham City Council. The surrounding land is regularly used for large scale outdoor events such as concerts and festivals. In 2011, key scenes from the Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises were filmed there, and the hall and its surroundings are expected to feature more often as a film location in the future.
