That linen fold paneling is really something; to think it was all carved by hand all those ages ago. Some of the doors look like they are a little low by today's standards, but it's hard to tell really. I noticed the banners in the library from the 1895 General Election. Beautiful plaster ceilings in some of the rooms, so ornate. And wish I could see those Elizabethan (?) era dolls closer in the bedroom with the red Beefeater looking suit of clothing in it. It was all fascinating.

It has been wonderfully restored and although I cannot imagine living on that scale it would be nice to visit there.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-46182860000586603282013-08-19T23:17:22.058+01:002013-08-19T23:17:22.058+01:00Very interesting home!
