Day Trip To Lanhydrock 1
Another Bank Holiday .. another Day-Trip.
The weather was good, and it was nice to re-visit a Stately Home that I had been to before (the advantage of being a member of the National Trust).
This trip was to Lanhydrock in Cornwall. Much of the house is Victorian, due to a fire, but some do date back to the 16th century.
Looking down on the house
The Long Gallery ... still the original
David & Goliath
Noah & the Ark
Adam & Eve being thrown out of Eden
The original owner - John Robartes
His Lordship's bathroom (above), but he preferred a slipper bath (lower)
As Victorian & Edwardian M.P.s, they travelled a lot to London
Staff quarters
Men only!
Kitchens
The table as set for lunch on 11/6/1950 .... The King & Queen came for lunch
