You're very welcome. Thanks for taking the time (over an hour!) to watch it. It's always nice to know that my little videos are appreciated. It's an amazing place! All the best, Adam :)
It's remarkable, especially in this case, what they were able to build across the estate as a whole. I guess they went a bit too far and ran out of money...
I was in London in 2010; I travelled to Bath only; I contemplated which Country Houses to visit, but did not have the time! I do not know when I will be back! Any chance you have Easton Neston, Hardwick Hall or Wentworth Woodhouse? I had a large collection of books on the English Country House which were destroyed by fire, unfortunately!
Thank you so much for taking me on this walk with you. Enjoy the way you give information about each special location and take time to show the beauty of each beautiful view 😊
Thank you so much for letting me know that it's appreciated. It means a lot to know that I'm doing something positive and worthwhile. It was a long day! A beautiful place though. Thanks for joining me on the exploration. Adam :)
This place is absolutely stunning , what a dreamhouse and landscape from the 18eCentury, I'm realy in awe , Thank You so very much for filming this, realy realy fantastic.
When this estate was Stowe School, J. F. Roxburgh became the first headmaster. Actor David Niven was in that first year of students, in 1923. Another Old Boy from Roxburgh's previous school, Lancing College, was Evelyn Waugh. Waugh wrote Roxburgh's obituary in 1954. Niven writes fondly of his time at Stowe in his memoir, "The Moon's A Balloon." He credited Roxburgh and Stowe with saving his life.
You could well be right. I had read about that, but I'd also read the same about Stowe. I might look into it a bit more and try to find out the official measurements for the two. Thanks for watching my video, Adam :)
