Sowshill 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

GWR loco No7820 Dinmore Manor And No6023 King Edward II head toward Broadway as the sun begins to set during a 30742 Photo charter on the Gloucester and Warwickshire Railway June 2018.
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.

Waddesdon Manor is a country house in the village of Waddesdon, in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located in the Aylesbury Vale, 6.6 miles west of Aylesbury.
The chapel building at Hidcote Manor Garden in Gloucestershire had several previous uses prior to becoming a secondhand bookshop for the National Trust. Research suggests that in the late 1700s this building was a barn with first-floor granary store.
Sometime around 1833, the then owner, converted the barn into a stable for four horses and added a saddle room. By 1929, Lawrence Johnston had changed the layout to accommodate two horses and a tack room.
The construction used high-quality materials and workmanship. It is likely the design of the building matched the classical front face of the Manor House. Ten years later he converted the stables to a chapel. He steepened the roof, removed the first-floor and added 15th century stained glass.

Waddesdon Manor is a country house in the village of Waddesdon, in Buckinghamshire, England. Owned by the National Trust and managed by the Rothschild Foundation, it is one of the National Trust's most visited properties, with over 463,000 visitors in 2019.
The Grade I listed house was built in a mostly Neo-Renaissance style, copying individual features of several French châteaux, between 1874 and 1889 for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (1839–1898) as a weekend residence for entertaining and to house his collection of arts and antiquities. As the manor and estate have passed through three generations of the Rothschild family, the contents of the house have expanded to become one of the most rare and valuable collections in the world. In 1957, James de Rothschild bequeathed the house and its contents to the National Trust, opening the house and gardens for the benefit of the general public. Unusually for a National Trust property, the family of James Rothschild, the donor, manage the house
Lynx Manor at sunrise was a magical place to be as the fog rose from lightly misted ground and the lightning bugs found their way home. The lynx's always awoke as the stars faded into the peach skies and reflected on the water around them.
