Cronkhill, Atcham, Shropshire, designed by John Nash, is "the earliest Italianate villa in England".[1]

Drawing on influences from the Italian Campagna and the Picturesque, including the art of Claude Lorrain, it began an architectural style that was hugely influential in England in the first half of the nineteenth century. Major examples include Trentham Park and Osborne House. Nash's "most original building",[2] it is Grade I listed.[1]
