Burton Constable, South Front

Slide 6 – The buildings of the south front are principally composed of numerous offices and servants apartments which, with the north front, are very irregular, and are evidently the remains of a much older edifice; the use of different building materials gives us some clue as to the gradual growth of the house. It may be stated that when the family are in residence, a flag is always flown on the top of the turret, as shown on the photographs.
