Claydon House in Buckinghamshire is an exquisite Georgian mansion built c.1759-1771 by Ralph the 2nd Earl Verney. The house, now run by the National Trust, survives as a rare example of English rococo interiors and included carved ornament by Luke Lightfoot. It is thought that this pair of gates were acquired for installation in the grounds but were never hung and have remained in storage there for many years.
