Ancient sentinels weathering the aeons, outlasting all other signs people gone, carrying ghosts of other things - things otherwise forgotten, and in some case best remaining buried, lost in time.Niklaus Schmitt, PhD.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14627642557651745313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-70536216455479330302011-06-28T01:41:37.944-07:002011-06-28T01:41:37.944-07:00Haddon Hall has always been my favourite 'stat...Haddon Hall has always been my favourite 'stately home', I've always felt that I could live there, it has a welcoming feel about it. I'm lucky to live close enough to visit whenever I want to:)Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-66038713775203723452011-06-28T00:15:35.433-07:002011-06-28T00:15:35.433-07:00I'm glad you all enjoyed it.

That's where I attended college in the late 50's. It isn't a college any more, but it had a beautiful entrance hall and gorgeous gardens.ChrisJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550420299395301062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-85398142551713508312011-06-27T08:59:17.347-07:002011-06-27T08:59:17.347-07:00Such history!

Although, in our defense, there was not just ONE cook in that kitchen - there was a staff of cooks and bakers! Seeing this makes me want to hurry our visit there!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Dianne<br />www.mysouthernheart.com<br />www.campbellkidsfarm.comSouthernHearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07570700924252634215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-49951178616271265062011-06-27T06:33:51.029-07:002011-06-27T06:33:51.029-07:00It is years since we visited Haddon Hall but these...It is years since we visited Haddon Hall but these photos brought it all back.

I'm thinking that the pantry or buttery are probbly bigger than my whole compact kitchen and dining area. I also think how impossible it would be to keep an area comfortably warm in cold weather.

One of those expressions you use for years without thinking of its origins.<br /><br />Your OH must have been in seventh heaven admiring all the beautiful old carpentry and wood carving.<br /><br />Thank you for a lovely "virtual visit"!Dartford Warblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04352965211143836326noreply@blogger.com
