Our grand day out at Castle Howard near York

Image

the South Front
Image

believe it or not, most of the right hand side including the dome and the rooms immediately beneath it (the ones without blinds)
Image
are just a shell. There was a fire in 1940 that destroyed these areas and only bits like the dome and parts of the rooms beneath that have been renovated - and only then for the TV series and more recent film of Bridesmaids Regurgitated

the North Front
Image

the Atlas fountain
Image
(you'll notice that all of the statues are 'atless :roll: )

thereby (nearly) hangs a tail
Image

That's all. The Snickelways of York will follow soon.
