Somewhere just outside of Kingman, Arizona, the heart of historic Route 66 and the gateway to many points of interest but not the town itself, there is a piece-of-pie-shaped corner lot, a little-travelled but paved highway of sorts on one side, a wide and dusty gravel road on the other. You'll find two abandoned trailer homes here. A perfunctory wire fence separates the two areas, and the corner property we are told was recently purchased for $30,000.
At first glance, one wonders how long the doll heads, mattresses, bucket car seats, blankets, and telephone handsets strewn over the desert land have been scorching in the endless searing heat. The colours are so bright and brilliant and heightened by the fiery sun, it's as though we are in some kind of solar circus. We feel seething inside and the light is oppressive. My head turns and I blink, sticky. The perspiration evaporates from my skin instantly and for the briefest of moments I don't seem to feel hot at all. A phone book lies in the tawny sand, its yellow pages flicking and snapping in a breeze that does not cool my flesh.
I do not doubt that there are legions of unhappy stories in these parts. The land, barren and unforgiving, cannot soothe weary souls; can only whittle them down until it's difficult to really do anything at all, much less live a healthy and satisfying life.
A man and his wife in a clean, white, new pick-up truck drive by us. They turn around and drive back. They ask if we are the new owners. This makes us chuckle, us city folk with our rented mid-size SUV and name-brand clothes bought cheap from the outlet mall in Vegas, our fancy digital cameras slung around our sweaty necks slick with sunscreen. But they did not judge us.
They tell us that just a few weeks earlier this had been a nice trailer. After the two girls who were renting it had left for reasons unknown, some riffraff had come by and trashed the place. I look back at the trailer and broken gate, and I wonder if the new owners will clean up the property and build their dream house here. But I can't shake the feeling that it's tainted. I can hear the endless murmurs of the ghosts of those who couldn't make a life here, steadfast and unchanging on the desert wind.

Right next to the Manhattan Beach IN Manhattan Beach, California - a simple (ha!) home that really stands out amid the clutter of densely-packed housing. I'd imagine this property affords very pleasant viewing of the Pacific Ocean, although when I was there, no sign of residents was apparent. I wonder if the home inside is as ornate and architecturally interesting as the exterior.
Would you say this is "nouveau riche" or maybe "nouveau vintage"? Does this home have a "style", perhaps Italianate? Upon a closer look, I think the architect planned this home to have a pre-aged appearance.

Marbella pre property video. ( Bit of fun) We seem to spend more time getting properties ready for Video , than the production of the videos themselves. Because at this point feel unable to manipulate the image quite as easily as you can with a still RAW file.
Edlingham Castle was a dinky delight of a building, a fortified manor house with the potential to become something much grander which was sadly nipped in the bud during its history. Visiting Northumberland for the first time I discovered that 'castles' in this county are smaller and more home-made than in the 'soft south' of England. Close proximity to the Scottish border meant that every large home had to be capable of defence against raiders or Reivers.
The next-door village church was consecrated as early as 831 to 847 AD but by 1230 to 1256 John de Edlingham had built a two-storey hall house near the river with a hall, parlour, chambers, kitchen, bakehouse, brewhouse and other services. This was defended by a moat fed from nearby springs.
The property was taken over by Sir William de Felton in 1296 who appears to have added fortifications including a palisade (timber stockade) inside the moat and built a gatehouse. His son William had better ideas and added a magnificent solar tower on the sunny side of the hall from 1340 onwards. This tower would have provided warm and comfortable accommodation for the family as well as providing a more formidable defence in the style of a Border peel or pele tower - common in this area. The guide notes in the neighbouring Norman church make no reference to this but we noted that one side of the solar had projecting stones which were clearly intended for a larger curtain wall but which was never built. William junior also improved the gate which at some stage gained a portcullis and probably a drawbridge. Why the work on the better wall next to the solar tower was never finished is unknown but the arrival of the Black Death (1348) affected many building projects in the UK, often for several decades. Disease, death or the border wars could equally be to blame.
This solar tower would have been a little stunner in its prime - 35 feet wide on all sides with round bartizan towers at each corner in the style of some Scottish castles and Border peels. It had a lower fore building and an external portcullis gate. A particular feature inside the solar was the 'joggled' fireplace lintels on two floors each made 'Lego' style by slotting multiple stones together each keyed by a line of '3's (see picture). This was a feature I had never seen before. The solar had at least two garderobes (toilets) on different levels. The guide in the church suggests that the subsequent collapse of the solar tower may be due to it being partly placed over the filled-in moat and then insufficiently supported at foundation level. By 1400 the site was robust enough to be called a castle implying that a formal licence to crenellate (fortify) had been obtained.
After 1420 it passed into the hands of the Hastings family and stayed with them until 1519. Under later owners there was much stone robbing and it degenerated into a farm but two metres of wind blown soil managed to cover the surviving (and almost complete) cobbled yard which was first unearthed by English Heritage in 1978.work finally finished in 1985 with steel ties being used to hold the two halves of the solar tower together. It is a very sick building!
The guide in the church said that the peaceful early 13th century reflected the first - minor - defences of the site but once the Scottish wars of independence began the whole Borders area became an unstable war zone, not helped by the raiding families from either kingdom 'nipping over the border' to do a little shopping at their neighbours' expense. Sheep, goats, cattle, horses - any portable wealth that could be moved quickly plus the contents of any strong boxes which could be opened or carried off by the Reivers.

....ah New England, home to clam chowder and lobster bisque - perfect on a cold day.
Now, how does that saying go... never eat oysters in months without an 'R'?
With an R's okay? without, say nay? can never remember. Confusing rule, if you ask me :)

Nymans is an English garden in Haywards Heath, Sussex. It was developed, starting in the late 19th century, by three generations of the Messel family, and was brought to renown by Leonard Messel.
In 1953 Nymans became a National Trust property.[1] Nymans is the origin of many sports, selections and hybrids, both planned and serendipitous, some of which can be identified by the term nymansensis, "of Nymans". Eucryphia × nymansensis (E. cordifolia × E. glutinosa) is also known as E. "Nymansay". Magnolia × loebneri 'Leonard Messel', Camellia 'Maud Messel' and Forsythia suspensa 'Nymans', with its bronze young stems, are all familiar shrub to gardeners.
History
In the late 19th century, Ludwig Messel, a member of a German Jewish family, settled in England and bought the Nymans estate, a house with 600 acres on a sloping site overlooking the picturesque High Weald of Sussex. There he set about turning the estate into a place for family life and entertainment, with an Arts and Crafts-inspired garden room where topiary features contrast with new plants from temperate zones around the world. Messel's head gardener from 1895 was James Comber, whose expertise helped form plant collections at Nymans of camellias, rhododendrons, which unusually at the time were combined with planting heather (Erica) eucryphias and magnolias. William Robinson advised in establishing the Wild Garden.[2]
His son Colonel Leonard Messel succeeded to the property in 1915 and replaced the nondescript Regency house with the picturesque stone manor, designed by Sir Walter Tapper and Norman Evill in a mellow late Gothic/Tudor style. He and his wife Maud (daughter of Edward Linley Sambourne) extended the garden to the north and subscribed to seed collecting expeditions in the Himalayas and South America.
The garden reached a peak in the 1930s and was regularly opened to the public. The severe reduction of staff in World War II was followed in 1947 by a disastrous fire in the house, which survives as a garden ruin. The house was partially rebuilt and became the home of Leonard Messel's daughter[3] Anne Messel and her second husband the 6th Earl of Rosse. At Leonard Messel's death in 1953 it was willed to the National Trust with 275 acres of woodland, one of the first gardens taken on by the Trust. Lady Rosse continued to serve as Garden Director.
