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

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!
Claverton Manor, near Bath, is an 1820 country house and home to the American Museum in a commanding position overlooking the Limpley Stoke Valley. The gardens are a subtle blend of both the remnants of the old manorial pleasure grounds and parkland landscape.
There is a re-creation of George Washington's Garden at Mount Vernon, and an arboretum with a collection of American trees.

Mount Wilga House, 2a Manor Road, in Hornsby, northern Sydney. A heritage listed mansion. Built in 1913-1914 by Henry Marcus Clarke. Discovered by me today, Saturday 20th June, 2020, as I was driving through the back streets of Hornsby looking for a place that had advertised geraniums and cactus plants for sale!
