Venture inside the building to learn more through museum exhibitions. 78 Derngate is both an architectural masterpiece in its own right and an important museum and exhibition space in the heart of Northampton. Discover its history as you become absorbed by the impressive works of art on display. Pieces range from oil paintings to print works. Originally, 78 Derngate was a Georgian house. Its owner, WJ Basset-Lowke, requested the expertise of famed designer and architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh to completely remodel the building in 1916\. To this day it is considered one of the most significant works by one of Scotland’s most famous sons. It was Mackintosh’s last job before his death in 1928. The house was inhabited by the Basset-Lowkes until 1926 when it was sold. Throughout its life, however, it has been the private home of many different families, as well as hosting the Northampton School for Girls until 1996\. It was then that the Northampton Borough Council bought it and it became the wonderful arts space we see today. Take a look at the 78 Derngate website for upcoming exhibitions. There is plenty to experience inside the house. Enjoy a short film about the restoration and history of the house before embarking on a self-guided tour. See the kitchen area and the family rooms and appreciate the intricate décor. The ultra-modern shapes with their strong colors are so typical of Mackintosh’s work. Afterward, head to the exhibition area for displays of local arts and crafts. 78 Derngate is located at the end of the street called Derngate and is an easy walk from the town center. Buses also stop nearby. Visit Tuesday to Sunday from February to December. There is an admission fee, but various concessions are offered. Complete your visit to the house with a snack or meal at the building’s delightful restaurant, which offers everything from light lunches to full afternoon teas. ## Plan a trip to see 78 Derngate Price found within the past 48 hours.
