The Chanterelle Guy at the farmers market on Södermalm in his stylish Härkila cap. Yours for around 360 SEK. Made from cotton. How much for the mushrooms, I hear you ask? No clue, no money in the world would make me eat that.

Grand 16th-century country house in an ancient deer park on the banks of the River Avon, 6 km east of Stratford-upon-Avon and 9 km south of Warwick, Warwickshire, England. It has been administered by the National Trust since 1946 and is open to the public.
The Lucy family, who came to England with William the Conqueror, has owned the land since 1247. Charlecote Park was built in 1558 by Sir Thomas Lucy, and Queen Elizabeth I stayed in the room that is now the drawing room. Although the general outline of the Elizabethan house remains, nowadays it is in fact mostly Victorian. Successive generations of the Lucy family had modified Charlecote Park over the centuries, but in 1823, George Hammond Lucy inherited the house and set about recreating the house in its original style.
In the middle of the 19th century the Fairfax Baronets inherited the property when the male line of the Lucy family failed. The baronets changed their family name to Lucy to reflect the traditions of Charlecote.
The Great Hall has a barrel-vaulted ceiling made of plaster painted to look like timber and is a fine setting for the splendid collection of family portraits. Other rooms have richly coloured wallpaper, decorated plaster ceilings and wood panelling. There are magnificent pieces of furniture and fine works of art, including a contemporary painting of Queen Elizabeth I. The original two-storey Elizabethan gateway that guards the approach to the house remains unaltered.

All Saints, Shirburn, Oxfordshire.
Grade ll listed.
The Earls of Macclesfield have owned Shirburn Castle since 1716. The north transept of All Saints' Church contains their family pew and the north chapel is the Macclesfield family mausoleum. - See more at: www.visitchurches.org.uk/Ourchurches/Completelistofchurch...
Shirburn Castle is a fortress - even today. I understand even Dr Pevsner was unable to gain access for the Oxfordshire volume of his Buildings of England books.
I have read the church is also difficult of access despite it being a Churched Conservation Trust church, but I have to say the people in the Shirburn Estate office were very accommodating.

Cliveden (pronounced Klivd'n) is an English country house and estate in the care of the National Trust in Buckinghamshire, on the border with Berkshire. The Italianate mansion, also known as Cliveden House, crowns an outlying ridge of the Chiltern Hills close to the South Bucks villages of Burnham and Taplow. The main house sits 40 metres (130 ft) above the banks of the River Thames, and its grounds slope down to the river. Cliveden has become one of the National Trust's most popular pay-for-entry visitor attractions, hosting 524,807 visitors in 2019.
Cliveden has been the home to a Prince of Wales, two Dukes, an Earl, and finally the Viscounts Astor. As the home of Nancy Astor, wife of the 2nd Viscount Astor, Cliveden was the meeting place of the 'Cliveden Set' of the 1920s and 30s—a group of political intellectuals.
Later, during the early 1960s when it was the home of the 3rd Viscount Astor, it became the setting for key events of the notorious Profumo affair.
After the Astor family stopped living there, by the 1970s it was leased to Stanford University, which used it as an overseas campus. Today the house is leased to a company that runs it as a five-star hotel.
