Designed by architects John Carr and Robert Adam, it was built between 1759 and 1771, for Edwin Lascelles, 1st Baron Harewood, a wealthy West Indian plantation and slave owner. The landscape was designed by Lancelot "Capability" Brown and spans {{convert|1000|acre|ha|sigfig=1|abbr=off}} at Harewood.

Still home to the Lascelles family, Harewood House is a member of the Treasure Houses of England, a marketing consortium for ten of the foremost historic homes in the country. The house is a Grade I listed building and a number of features in the grounds and courtyard have been listed as Grade I, II* and II.

History

=Early history=

The Harewood estate was created in its present size by merging two adjacent estates, the Harewood Castle estate based on Harewood Castle and the Gawthorpe estate based on the Gawthorpe Hall manor house (not to be confused with the Gawthorpe Hall near Burnley in Lancashire). The properties were combined when the Wentworths of Gawthorpe, who inherited the estate from the Gascoignes, bought the neighbouring Harewood estate from the Ryther family. The combined estate was sold to the London merchant Sir John Cutler in 1696, after whose death it passed to the Boulter family. They in turn sold it to the Lascelles in 1721.{{cite book|title=The Civil, Ecclesiastical, Literary, Commercial, and Miscellaneous of Leeds etc|volume=1|page=215}}

=The Lascelles family=

In the late seventeenth century members of the Lascelles family purchased plantations in the West Indies, and the income generated allowed Henry Lascelles to purchase the estate in 1738; his son, Edwin Lascelles, 1st Baron Harewood, a wealthy plantation and slave owner,{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/abolition/building_britain_gallery_03.shtml|title=History – British History in depth: Slavery and the Building of Britain|publisher=BBC|access-date=15 February 2019|archive-date=16 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190216232224/http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/abolition/building_britain_gallery_03.shtml|url-status=live}} built the house between 1759 and 1771{{cite book|title=Architecture of England, Scotland, and Wales|last=Jones|first=Nigel R.|pages=133–135|publisher=Greenwood Publishing Group|year=2005|location=Westwood, CT, USA|isbn=0313318506}} to replace Gawthorpe Hall, the original manor house on the estate.

Edwin employed the services of John Carr, an architect practising in the north of England who had been employed by a number of prominent Yorkshire families, to design their new country houses. The foundations were laid in 1759 and the house was largely complete by 1765. Robert Adam submitted designs for the interiors, which were approved in 1765. Adam made a number of minor alterations to Carr's designs for the building's exterior including internal courtyards. The house remained largely untouched until the 1840s when Sir Charles Barry was employed by Henry Lascelles, 3rd Earl of Harewood, the father of thirteen children, to increase the accommodation. Barry added second storeys to each of the flanking wings to provide extra bedrooms, removed the south portico and created formal parterres and terraces.

=20th century=

In 1922, Henry Lascelles, Viscount Lascelles married Princess Mary, the only daughter of George V. Initially living in the nearby Goldsborough Hall, the couple moved permanently into Harewood House on the death of Henry's father in 1929.

During the Second World War, the house acted as a resident convalescent hospital{{cite web |title=Leeds Legacies |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/legacies/work/england/leeds/gallery_6.shtml |publisher=BBC |access-date=25 September 2019 |quote=During World War II Harewood House was used as a resident convalescent hospital. |archive-date=25 September 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190925070737/http://www.bbc.co.uk/legacies/work/england/leeds/gallery_6.shtml |url-status=live }} but by the late 1940s, the Princess Royal and her family had moved permanently back to Harewood, where the house and gardens were regularly opened{{cite news |title=Harewood House open on Monday |url=https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/searchbna/results?memberlastsubclass=none&searchhistorykey=0&keywords=harewood%20%20house%20%20gardens%20%20%20opened&county=yorkshire%2c%20england&from=1944&to=1949 |access-date=25 September 2019 |newspaper=Yorkshire Evening Post |location=Yorkshire, England |date=29 July 1949 |quote=Harewood House open on Monday – HAREWOOD House and gardens will open to the public on Monday from 11 a.m. to... |archive-date=8 February 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210208103550/https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/searchbna/results?memberlastsubclass=none&searchhistorykey=0&keywords=harewood++house++gardens+++opened&county=yorkshire%2C+england&from=1944&to=1949 |url-status=live }} to the public. The estate also hosted concerts connected with musical institutions including the Yorkshire Symphony Orchestra and the Leeds Musical Festival, of which the Princess was patron.

The Bird Garden at Harewood House had a small collection of exotic bird species, of which more than 5 were listed as vulnerable or endangered by the IUCN. It was a member of the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums (BIAZA).

Birds that could be seen in the garden included Humboldt penguins, Chilean flamingos, Duyvenbode's lories and macaws.

In January 2023 the trustees of Harewood announced their decision to close the Bird Garden: the exact date would be announced later in the year. The Farm Experience would remain open. The area occupied by the Bird Garden would be redeveloped as a new woodland garden, including reinstating some historic walks. New homes would be found for all the birds. The trustees said that the last inspection had "identified many problems with the site's physical infrastructure" which would require £4 million to be spent, and they "had to make the incredibly difficult decision to close this part of the Harewood experience".{{cite news |last1=Newton |first1=Grace |title=Harewood House in Yorkshire announces closure of Bird Garden attraction after 50 years – after concerns it had become 'out of date' |url=https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/heritage-and-retro/heritage/harewood-house-in-yorkshire-announces-closure-of-bird-garden-attraction-after-50-years-after-concerns-it-had-become-out-of-date-3981250 |access-date=25 January 2023 |date=10 January 2023}}{{cite web |title=Harewood Statement |url=https://harewood.org/harewood-statement/ |website=Harewood House |publisher=Harewood |access-date=25 January 2023 |date=January 2023 |archive-date=9 December 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231209053037/https://harewood.org/harewood-statement/ |url-status=dead }}
