Palaces of the United Kingdom and Ireland

Palace and country house entries whose subject stands in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland: the royal palace, the ducal or earl's stately home, and the country house built for aristocratic display. Belongs here: any named residence this atlas records as standing anywhere in the United Kingdom or Ireland, whether a working royal palace, a family seat still occupied by its historic owners, or a house now run as a museum or heritage property. Does not belong here: a residence anywhere on the European continent, gathered under Palaces of Western Europe or Palaces of Eastern Europe and Russia depending on the country, even where the same architect or patron family also built there.
