Chartley Hall, Staffordshire, England, 1847

Chartley Hall, Staffordshire, the seat of Earl Ferrers, was almost totally destroyed by fire on Monday night week, the whole rang eof rooms occupied by the family falling a sacrifice to the devouring element, whilst the only portion of the ancient edifice preserved was one wing of the building occupied by the servants.
