      @tony8074 Hi Tony! It is 15 degrees colder here than it was in Amalfi... we needed our coats! Thanks for watching, we had a great time at Gainsborough so much to see there! Best wishes from Neil and Ant 😊

    Gainsboroush Old Hall is so rustic & charming with such lovely Rooms & beautifully carved Wood furnishings. As well as, such rich, dark, ornate Wood Panelling, Fireplaces, & Headboards in the bedrooms. The latticed windows are also so rustic & charming as well, along with the Servant's Area! Then there is the very intriguing looking Tower! Ooooo! The whole Manor is actually a very intriguing Place! It certainly looks like a place which could be haunted! An ethereal 'Grey Lady' holding a Candle, moving from window to window & Room to Room, looking for her 'lost love' every night. Poor soul! Oh my! Anyway, thank you lads for sharing another wonderful experience at this charming Manor House...Gainsborough Old Hall. Blessings to you both! 👻

The house must have been very splendid when it was fully furnished... fit for not one but two kings visits! The woodwork is so beautiful, we just wondered how many times it has been polished over the years! We hope you have a lovely weekend and we send to you our very best wishes 😊

The lustrous dark Woodwork there sure looks like it has seen a lot of Beeswax through the Centuries.Maybe that's what the 'Grey Lady' is actually doing! Floating around polishing the WoodWork every night. Oh my! That explains it all! LOL. Thanks again for sharing lads! Have a peaceful evening! 👻

    Good evening guys hope you are both well. We love this one we visited a while ago and were very taken with it. It looks so stunning from outside. The banquet hall is fantastic isn't it. Would have loved to have had a banquet here with Henry VIII although sounds like it got a bit wild 😆. For a timber house it has wonderful proportions. The tower is amazing and the views are fabulous. We really love that kitchen must have been such a hive of activity and there would have been such a lovely aroma. Did you see the grey lady? We didn't unfortunately 👻. We remember sitting in the tea room too 😆 . This was a wonderful tour thank you for taking us along. Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️

      @inbetween-days Evening Dave and Dawn! We really enjoyed our visit, the house meanders so much it is easy to get lost in it! We thought it had a great atmosphere! The grey lady made our toasted tea cakes and lattes she was very hospitable 😆 seriously though we'd love to have bumped into her! The Great Hall is fabulous and strange to think that no so long after his visit King Richard ended up buried under what would become a carpark in Leicester! Thanks so much for watching and for the lovely thoughtful comment... all the best from us both 😊

      @@chrisisjustme7546 Probably you know this, but if the glass in the windows of the house is still original from the middle ages, the glass was made on the continent, probably Flanders. Only after the start of the religious wars, glass manufacturing returned back to England after the Roman decline. This means every piece of glass in the old windows needed to be shipped in, what was a tremendous cost. Have a nice day!

      @dragonmartijn Great fact! We first learned this when we visited Aston Hall [ our spooky video! ] it is incredible that they had the logistics to do this and just imagine how long it would take to go from the point of manufacture to its destination in areas such as middle England... no Amazon next day then! All the best to you 😊

    So much ornate detailed carvings, its a wonder how these massive homes were built even within a lifetime. What do you suppose was the purpose of those beautiful large acorns hanging around the bed canopy ?
