    This Wealden Hall House was saved from being flooded by a new reservoir, by being moved about 55 miles to the Weald and Downland Open air Museum.

    Such a beautiful old house. The woodwork is fantastic! I love the way the beams fit together and to think made so many years ago! The furniture woodwork is a work of art, Thanks Harry for bringing a bit of your world into ours, as I could never hope to be able to visit such a place, But would love too! Take care.

    My favorite building on the whole site. I remember visiting this as a child, all children remember this house because of the toilet! There is a photo album in the building which is well worth looking at as it shows the building before it was taken down. After thirty years of visiting I married my wife at the museum and had our photos taken in and outside this very special building. The finest building of its type at the museum. Thanks for sharing ..

    It sure looks a lot like the Locksley manor house that was in the TV series Robin Hood. Nice timberwork, and love the simple furniture! Thanks for sharing Harry!

    It's a beautiful house and I love the way it is constructed. I really need to visit the Weald and Downland Museum some day. Thanks for sharing Harry

    Looks very familiar. I think it was featured in the BBC TV series ''TUDOR FARM'''. and a occasional glimpse in 'REPAIR SHOP'', which is set in the same place. On that subject, there are many other ancient buildings on the 'WEALD and DOWNLAND Open MUSEUM.'' that were from all over the country, dismantled, and moved there, then reconstructed. Other's were moved there whole, amazing.

    Why is this video so short? It's a large house and we are seeing a small portion of it. Are there hearths and fireplaces? That is the most fascinating part of these old homes, that, and the flooring, stairwells and doorways. Antique shops have lots of old jugs and pottery, we want to see the house!

    Really enjoyed this video, Harry. Thanks for sharing. Have watched it several times. It is amazing to think that this house was built long before Columbus discovered America! I suppose the steep vaulted roof was to allow smoke to escape. Or perhaps to shed off snow? The roof appears to be shingled with cedar shakes?

    • @harryrogers
      @harryrogers  9 років тому +3

      Thanks I am pleased to hear that especially as I know technically its not the greatest filming! The roof tiles are in fact clay tiles...I expect this house could tell a lot of stories.

    This is my favourite house in the whole museum - a Yeoman's House I guess.

    shame you didnt show the loo that hangs off the back haha, when I was at the weald and downland museum there was a pile of fire ashes placed underneath it outside to look like feces. With what you were saying about the cattle I remember there being two bulls or cows kept in a pen on the other side (they weren't particularly jovial to see us and had a sombre look about them)

    Very nice, I like the construction! Was this house used in the Tudor Monastery Farm series?

  • @antharch
    @antharch 9 років тому +3

    In the exterior shot at the beginning, there appears to be a garderobe (indoor privy) protruding from the side of the solar (upstairs bedchamber). I didn't notice it on the interior shot. Is it actually a wardrobe?

    • @harryrogers
      @harryrogers  9 років тому +2

      No - you are right it is a garderobe...well spotted. I will be putting up another film on a different house where I will show the garderobe.

      Ron - I have made leather tankards lined with brewers pitch.....and one of my friends is very good at making both tankards and water bottles etc ...so perhaps so some time!
