More Glass than Wall

Flickr Lounge ~ Windows

 

Bess of Hardwick was the richest woman in England, after Elizabeth I, when she had the hall built between 1590 and 1597. The windows are exceptionally large and numerous at a time when glass was a luxury, leading to the saying, "Hardwick Hall, more glass than wall."

 

Stay safe and well everyone.
