First of all apologies for some dodgy pics, when I got home my card was corrupted and half the images were lost, plus all the raw files were screwed, absolute bummer!:thumbd
Visited with yorkietommo (sure his pics will follow and be better). Cannot find any history anywhere, looks to be an old Elizibethan manor, works seems to have started but stopped some years ago. I've past this place loads of times and never looked but held some nice parts, and why is it everywhere I go latley theres allways old classic cars in the grounds? Just about all the rooms were full of books allover the floors, but as I say most shots were lost but heres what I did get. -
