Pl. 16  "Cusworth in Yorkshire the Seat of William Wrightson Esqr."

Charming hand-colored engraving published as an illustration to William Angus's The Seats of the Nobility and Gentry in Great Britain and Wales, published in London between 1787 and 1807.  With its accompanying text which describes the situation and grounds of the manor which "commands most pleasing and extensive views of the Country around," it is a delightful view.
