What makes it stately? edit
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_country_house#Stately_homes_of_England suggests the term is deprecated by academics, and should only be applied to the grandest of country house (Q16884952). In WD the term seems to be applied to all levels of country house, and not many of the grandest ones, so its 70odd item usage should be cut back. The implication that it makes a building open to the public is better addressed by historic house museum (Q2087181), which is in much more common use. Vicarage (talk) 13:29, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
