Location of Gibside in Tyne and Wear
Gibside is an estate in Tyne and Wear, North East England. It is located in the valley of the River Derwent on the border with County Durham, between Rowlands Gill and Burnopfield. The estate is the surviving part of a Georgian landscaped park, primarily created under the ownership of Sir George Bowes (1701–1760) and designed in large part by Stephen Switzer and William Joyce.[1][2]
The park contains structures designed by James Paine, including a Palladian chapel; Daniel Garrett, including a banqueting house; and William Newton, however several are now ruined shells or have been demolished. Gibside Hall, the house at the centre of the estate, dates in part from the seventeenth century but is also a shell.[1]
Gibside descended by marriage from the mid-thirteenth century, and passed to the Bowes family in 1693. It was sold piecemeal during the twentieth century; the banqueting house is now owned by the Landmark Trust, and much of the rest of the estate by the National Trust.[2][3]
