Samlesbury Hall, Lancashire
Samlesbury Hall is a historic house in Samlesbury, Lancashire, England, six miles (10 km) east of Preston. It was built in 1325 by Gilbert de Southworth (b. 1270), and was the primary home of the Southworth family until the early 17th century.
Samlesbury Hall may have been built to replace an earlier building destroyed during a raid by the Scots, during The Great Raid of 1322. The hall has been many things in its past including a public house and a girls' boarding school, but since 1925, when it was saved from being demolished for its timber, it has been administered by a registered charitable trust, the Samlesbury Hall Trust. This Grade I listed medieval manor house attracts more than 50,000 visitors each year.

I find this particulair place very special. I feel as if the past is the now when I see through those huge rooms.
Stunning house. The music is too loud and is very distracting.
Very good Video 🙂
You need to go what a night it was very bad
Beautiful video. Beautiful music. What is the music?
I would love the opportunity to fill this home with wonderful things!
Przepiękne wnętrza na ludzką skalę. Ten dom żyje.
is this place linked to anyone connected to Anne Lister?
Wundervoll Ich liebe diesen alten Kram, aber ich woĺlte niemals in so einem Haus wohnen Zu gross im Winter nicht warm zu bekommen u ständig von fremden Menschen umgeben die jeden Schritt belauern Scheusslich
Restored and furnished under the guidance of the masterly curator Daru Rooke, who was the best thing that happened to this remarkable house in recent years.
Wow, quite a place! Lots of interesting things to see. Thank you for sharing this.
I can imagine what a peasant back then would have thought about living in such luxury! Aside from my microwave and WIFI, I would not miss much else living in a building like this.
Very beautiful and nice music to boot. Thank you!
Thank you for this. As an old American, I will never see these in person, so I am happy that you're willing to use your time and energy to make these videos.
A very gloomy place with little feminism.
I love this place, but some of those ceilings...! I'd be afraid the weight of them would make them fall. Thank you for sharing this!!!
Thank you! Being trapped here in American, without you, I probably would never see many of these places.
Beautiful house wonderful stone xxx❤
Thanks for sharing this - it's a mansion I never knew about!
It would be great to include historical information about the home
That's what Mr. Google is for. Markus Sorsa is doing this on his own time and getting no financial support for it.
It's a GREAT building! Thank you for sharing this!

Best video of Lyme House on the internet
Хоть один день пожить в такой обстановке, красиво!
Ooooh! The Vaughan Williams Oboe Concerto is so beautiful. I love it!
As an American who will probably never get a chance to see these places in person, I thank you and appreciate your efforts.
Beautiful
Wow! Incredible castle!
As I went back to the top to hit like, I saw I wasn't subscribed. Your stuff shows up in my feed all the time. I was sure I was subscribed...you may want to check with UA-cam. Whatever the case, I'm certainly subscribed now.
I had to see people near the exterior before I realized the large scale of the house. Even so, compared to Elizabethan "prodigy" houses like Burghley, Gawthorpe has an appealing pocket-manor aspect in it's compactness and symmetry. The interiors seem so fresh I think they might be Victorian. If not, their state of preservation is astonishing. That indicates residents (and servants) over several hundred years who cared for it with faithful love. I'm a sucker for paneled rooms that leave stone door frames exposed, so that stair hall is my kind of gorgeous. The terraced half-round garden is breathtaking. When I noticed the person near the center, I was again struck by the deceptive scale. The plantings are tall enough to be like a maze, and it's monumental. Things are seldom both monumental and beautiful; but this is, and I've not seen anything like it. While the music isn't my personal favorite, this video is a little gem like your others. Thank you so much!
I don't often see this building showcased. Thanks for sharing this!
I’d really like to know more. Very intriguing place.
Music is to dramatic in my opinion. Lovely otherwise.
This castle is amazing and no video does it justice. I spent an evening here back in the early 90’s for a Halloween party. Keeps getting better as the years go bye. Ive tried to watch anything that pops up on this place and the evolution of everyones hard work is wonderful to witness.
Cuthbert Clifton of Lytham, Lancs was the first owner of Lytham Manor. The Cliftons were a gentle family and I think of them was raised to the peerage as a baron.
That house is so big, one needs a fleet of motorized wheelchairs and a couple of elevators to navigate through it.
Th exterior is not that interesting...from an architecture perspective. The interior however, is excellent!
Closed Captions needed.
Empire?

Wow! This place is amazing! Thanks for sharing it with us
Maravilloso lugar y qe atesora grandes colecciones de muebles de diferentes estilos ingleses.

Why no information about this building; who built it and when? At least add a small lettering to the video. It’s a disservice to post something like this.😡😡😡
