    I am very impressed at your knowledge of Mapperton and its history. Not many Americans would even bother to learn the heritage.

    Julie I love your video's on UA-cam. Your cute. It's your mannerisms and voice I love. Plus I feel like you are down to earth. You have now made me think about yoga. The VA clinic I go to offers yoga for chronic pain. You also speak of that cold water immersion therapy. I prefer warm water though. I take hydrocodone for pain. Neuropathic pain started after a tick bite while building a log home. Sept 2008. 15 yrs ago I was building high rise towers. I could carry a 100 pound on my shoulder up ten flights of stairs. Mostly bank towers. But I have built many schools and also installed medical gas ( oxygen pipe )in hospitals. Construction is hard on the body. As I said I prefer warm water swimming. It's easier on the joints. Low impact.

    It’s very interesting to hear about the people portrayed in the paintings, but I’d also be most interested in finding out who the painters are. I especially love the portrait of Alberta. The artist is quite accomplished. I couldn’t identify who the artist is, but from the style of painting I would put it’s execution between 1890 and 1910. The looseness of approach suggests very early 20th century. Beautifully done! Thanks for the tour!

    Yes I remember when M. Markle claimed she got married on her "back yard" away from the public eye. The chaplain then responded by saying it would not have happened, because in England the location of a wedding needs to be registered.

    Always love seeing the paintings in the Staircase Hall and hearing their history but I would also like to know about the other paintings in the Hall that you never seems to mention at all. Living there and being a part of all the history, you may feel that the other paintings are not interesting but I would enjoy hearing about them. I think others would as well.

    Absolutely love and enjoy all of your videos. No matter how serious or quirky or funny some are. It's just so interesting. BTW, suggestion if maybe you guys could propagate and sell some of your original plants. Many times people who love historic houses with Gardens love to take a piece home with them. Just a suggestion. I've bought some from Middleton Plantation in Charleston, SC.

    Where the old tudor door was makes sense of the layout of the original garden now because the pathway leads straight to the orginal door.

    ok the drone view of the old garden is soooooo cool! I absolutely adore the BTS...IMO way more interesting to see how you really live in the house than just a paid visit (though i never mind those either!) Have you ever entertained turning the house entrance back around and/or reinstalling the parterre gardens there?

    Here is the question ! why King Charles the second made the Edward Montagu an Earl ??? I mean he made a really important thing and ı probably would make him a duke , ı think that what he deserves

    • @barrymoore4470
      @barrymoore4470 Рік тому +1

      Holding the dignity and rank of an Earl was and is still a considerable honor; at the time of Montagu's elevation, an Earl could be referred to as "most noble and puissant prince". Dukedoms were still relatively rare in 1660, at the time Montagu was created Earl of Sandwich, and tended to be reserved for members of the Royal Family or persons closely linked to the sovereign by sanguinity or marriage. And at the time of the creation, the first Earl of Sandwich could still hope to possibly be elevated even further in the peerage, or anticipate one of his successors to be so honored.

    See people think when your a lord or lady you have a butler and maids just waiting on you hand and foot when there’s a long list of things that need to be done that stretches down the drive and you worry where the thrash is going to come from and it’s sad the generations before WW1 didn’t think of the future and how it would have a toll on there family’s where the money was going to come from to keep it all going that’s why the millionaire arises came over they had the money and the family got the title when you have a listed building it stinks since all the materials have to come from the city’s or county’s where they were originally purchased from like the tiles in the stair hall if on brakes and let’s say they came from Wheals well that’s where you have to get them from yah just can’t go to Home Depot I feel if the family puts there minds on the prize of this beautiful place as a working living estate again I can see them making it
