- History
In 1909, Haworth Park house was designed by W. H. Brierley for William Haworth. The estate was originally called Hollin's Hill. Hollin's Hill was a private residence until 1920, when it was converted into an art gallery. The Haworth Park and Gallery is home to Europe's largest public collection of Tiffany glass and consists of over one hundred and forty vases, tiles and mosaics. In addition the gallery has an excellent collection of mainly 19th-century oil paintings and water-colours.
