Visit The Rodd

Sir Sidney Nolan was a leading artist of the 20th century and one of the most influential pioneers of Australian modernism. He is especially celebrated for his iconic paintings of the bushranger outlaw Ned Kelly.

Nolan settled in the UK in 1953, becoming a major name in British art. Known for his experimental style and unusual use of materials, he explored global themes of place, culture and human experience.

In 1985, Sidney & Mary Nolan founded the Sidney Nolan Trust at The Rodd, a 17th-century manor house, farm and estate in rural Herefordshire. Today, the Trust provides inspiring encounters with arts, heritage and environment through exhibitions, workshops and events.
