Tone Dale House was built by Thomas Fox, in 1801; an historic Grade II listed country house located in Wellington, Somerset, England. Wellington lies 7 miles (11 km) west of Taunton in the vale of Taunton Deane, 1 mile (1.6 km) from the Devon border. Tone Dale House, also known as House of Fox, offers views of Somerset with the Quantock hills to the North, and Blackdown Hills to the south, upon which sits the Wellington monument, built in commemoration of the Duke of Wellington.
Other Fox family west country houses included many from around southern Cornwall coast, including Trebah, Glendurgan Garden and Penjerrick Garden all of their gardens are popular tourist destinations as they are open to the public.
In 1786, Thomas Fox the son of Edward Fox became a partner in the family's long established textile manufacturing business Fox Brothers in Wellington, Somerset at Tonedale Mills and Coldharbour Mill Working Wool Museum, Uffculme, Devon. "It was the practice...for many well-to-do manufacturers and merchants to build fine houses in the country, becoming country gentlemen themselves, their ladies priding themselves on their idleness." Thomas Fox and his wife Sarah, however, built their Palladian Villa house from 1801 beside their woollen mill.
