Shugborough Hall is a historic estate and stately home near Great Haywood, Staffordshire. The Shugborough estate was owned by the Bishops of Lichfield until the Dissolution, and thereafter passed through several hands, until it was purchased in 1624 by William Anson. In 1693, William Anson's grandson, also called William, demolished the existing manor house and constructed a three-storey building which still forms the central part of the hall. Between 1760 and 1770 it was enlarged and refashioned by "Athenian" Stuart and again partly remodelled by Samuel Wyatt at end of 18th-century. The interior is particularly notable for its magnificent plaster work and other decorations. It is within the council area of Stafford (Staffordshire).
