Snowshill Manor was the property of Winchcombe Abbey from 821 until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539[2] when the Abbey was confiscated by King Henry VIII. Between 1539 and 1919 it had a number of tenants and owners until it was purchased by Charles Paget Wade, an architect, artist-craftsman, collector, poet and heir to the family fortune. He restored the property, living in the small cottage in the garden and using the manor house as a home for his collection of objects. He gave the property and the contents of this collection to the National Trust in 1951

Woolsthorpe Manor tells the story of Newton's time at Woolsthorpe, from his birth and childhood to the discoveries of his Year of Wonders. In the 17th century manor house you can stand in the room where he used a prism to split sunlight into the colours of the rainbow, exploring the nature of light. From the window you can see the apple tree in the orchard which inspired his theory of gravity.

This is a picture I took a few years ago of Harlaxton Manor. You may recognise this place for it's appearance in a number of films, more famously for the remake of the Haunting Starring Liam Neeson, Lili Taylor, Catherine Zeta Jones, and Owen Wilson. I have never been into the grounds or the house itself as it doesn't seem to be open to the public very often. However there are a few open days throughout the Summer Holidays and I only work a few miles away, so I may be tempted to visit soon.

An unused photo from the archives. Waddesdon Manor, near Aylesbury, is simply one of the most ornate and sumptuously furnished country mansions that I have ever visited. Designed to resemble a French chateau in the Loire Valley, it was built between 1874 and 1889 for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (1839–1898). It is the second most-visited property run by the National Trust.

Red Fox - seen on my walk home from work. This gorgeous fox let me take a few shots before calmly wandering away, it was so beautiful, what a moment! This was in the same spot where I snapped the baby rabbit the other day, no sign of the rabbit!

the old manor in Cheshire, England is somewhat haunted, hidden from muggles, and attracts a few monsters every Halloween. To keep the place running, the Madoka family has created a bistro on the bottom floor for witches, wizards, and goblins alike. The house elves keep the wanderers from traveling up the stairs into private rooms, as outdoor tea parties swarm with flowers and nature.
