    Superb video. The pacing is perfect for a house tour like this, lingering on the visuals just long enough to let the detail sink in. Love the small doses of cheeky British humour as well.

    They have done such a wonderful job on the restoration of these rooms. The Elizabethan kitchen in particular is amazing (though personally I'd have kept the aga!). A really great video, you have a real talent for telling the history in such an engaging way and so thoroughly researched.

    In October half term (28th Oct- 1st Nov) there is also a living history week. You can visit and many tudors will be wondering the manor who you can ask questions to as well as meeting the Martyn family and others who have connections to them. :)

    This house featured as the home in the 2009 ghost story movie From Time to Time with Maggie Smith and Hugh Bonnerville (both from Downton Abbey). I think many scenes were filmed inside and outside. The movie was written by Julian Fellowes (who wrote Dowmton Abbey). It’s on RUclips to view.

    In the King's room, you can see the drag marks from the secret door on the floor to the left of the fireplace. It has made semi-circle shapped marks into the floor.

    The pinecones placed on chairs to disincentivize sitting may be seen as an invitation by some.

    I think about how many wonderful Trees had to felled to build these nohemouth houses. No wonder most are left to ruin in this day in time. I can't imagine heating these Enormous rooms ,upkeep etc .
    I'll bet it is Haunted.

    Can anyone explain to me why the exteriors of these histoeic homes are left covered in filth? It seems to me that they would look polished, pristine, claen and sharp. Is it preference or would it be harmful to the stone? This is such a beautiful home. I say clean it up and keep it clean and gorgeous!

    • @mikee8605
      @mikee8605 4 месяца назад +17

      Yes, unfortunately the more you clean exterior masonry, the faster it degrades and the less hardy it becomes. Ironically, in many cases, the patina that these houses develop actually helps to protect them from the elements and can even aid in insulation.

    It won't be good for the oak panelling to have that cast iron radiator near it in the King's Room.
