Lanhydrock House, Cornwall.
The National Trust.
Grade l listed.
C Jeakes & Co of 51 Great Russell Street, Bloomsbury, London.
Makers of kitchen equipment.
Jeakes's products may be found in the kitchens of a number of large National Trust houses.
Lanhydrock was built in 1630-42 for the Robartes family who rose from merchants and bankers to the peerage as Barons of Truro and then Earls of Radnor. The house was partly destroyed by fire in 1881 and was rebuilt by Richard Coad, an ex-pupil of George Gilbert Scott. Almost all that survives of the 17th-century interiors is the 116-ft long gallery and its superb barrel-vaulted ceiling containing 24 main panels depicting incidents from the Old Testament. Meanwhile, Coad’s neo-Jacobean interiors are a splendid expression of late Victorian comfort and prosperity.
Felbrigg Hall, Norfolk.

Grade ll listed.
Restored 1958.
One of the finest 17th-century houses in Norfolk, Felbrigg Hall was the home of the Windham family and its successors for 300 years. The house itself has a distinguished and varied pedigree. The Jacobean entrance front, built mainly in 1620, is attributed to Robert Lyminge (d1628). A west wing was added in 1674-86 to the designs of William Samwell (1628-1676), with interior plasterwork by Edward Goudge. In 1751-56 the Palladian architect James Paine (1717-1789) designed a service wing, Gothic library, staircase and several rooms, with interior decoration by Joseph Rose (1745-1799). In 1840, the great hall was remodelled in a neo-Jacobean style by John Chessell Buckler (1793-1884) and George Buckler (1811-1886).

The Central Hall.
Wallington has been owned by the National Trust since 1942, after it was donated complete with the estate and farms by Sir Charles Philips Trevelyan, the first donation of its kind.
The estate was owned by the Fenwick family from 1475 until it was sold to the Blacketts. The hall house was rebuilt in 1688 around the ancient pele tower house for Sir William Blackett and was later substantially rebuilt again, in Palladian style, for Sir Walter Blackett by architect Daniel Garrett, before passing to the Trevelyan family in 1777. Charles Philips Trevelyan inherited the property from his father George Otto Trevelyan in 1928.

A very small selection of photos from my day trip to the beautiful Devon Wildlife Trust reserve at Meeth Quarry. Unfortunately the weather was rubbish hence the lack of any decent wildlife variants!
