Roundhay Park Visitors Centre and the Mansion.
In 1811, John Clarke (d. 1857) of York, architect of the 'Commercial Buildings' in Leeds City Centre, was commissioned by Nicholson to design his Mansion House.

The new Roundhay Park Visitor Centre is based in the conservatory at the Mansion and celebrates the rich history and culture of Roundhay Park through an exciting and innovative public exhibition which communicates facinating information for all ages through interpretation and interactive exhibits.

Many of the exhibits connect directly with our park visitors through audio memories and also through the many items of archive material donated to Roundhay Park over the years.
The Visitor Centre also has a shop which sells leaflets, books and souvenirs of Roundhay Park as well as more general gifts for all the family.
Admission to the exhibition area is free and is open from 10am - 4pm in winter and 10am - 6pm in summer. Open all year except, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day.
The Visitor Centre also has public toilet facilities.

This classical building built in ashlar, on two storeys with seven bays with the centre three set behind an iron portico, was one of Clarke's earlier works and took some years to build. It is of modest size, but sufficiently elevated so as to command superb views Southwards over the park, and provides a focal point to Nicholson’s designed landscape.

The Mansion is seen here during the restoration works being carried out in Summer 2008, the exterior already looking cleaner than for many years!

The pathway commencing here is Middle Walk and provides direct access from the Mansion to Waterloo Lake.
