Upstairs half of a Great Mansion House. by ladymagpie

Upstairs half of a Great Mansion House.

The other day I gave you the capture "Upstairs, Downstairs", and the servants quarters of Stanley Park. Well I was naughty again today and closed my eyes to the Private, No Entry sign and found the Mansion.

It was originally built in 1550 and then rebuilt and styled in both 1750 and 1850, the later in this Gothic Tudor style. I decided that if caught and arrested I would plead the senile pensioner get out of jail card, I didn't know where I was my Lord.

Best viewed with the magnify button above the pic.
Gorgeous building and capture.

I'm glad you were naughty, and even more glad you didn't get caught! A very nice pair of photos, and fun to see, since I live in an area where anything older than I am is likely to be torn down and replaced.
