The Folk of Gloucester is a museum which is housed in two of the oldest buildings in the City of Gloucester, a Tudor merchant's house and a 17th-century town house. The timber framed museum in Westgate Street is devoted to the social history of Gloucestershire.
Bishop John Hooper is said to have lodged in the building the night before he was executed in St. Mary's square, near the cathedral in 1555.
Although Padbury is blessed with lots of lovely old cottages, their gardens often seem to be disappointingly basic and low maintenance, the one on the right lost to gravel for car-parking. The village is in the home counties, Milton Keynes close by and London 50 miles to the south and I suspect these very expensive 'des-res' are the homes of commuters and professionals, with little time or inclination for maintaining traditional cottage gardens.
The timber-framed Woodleys (left) and York Farm Cottage (right) in West Hagbourne, South Oxfordshire. Both date from the 17th century, while the large York Farmhouse (right background) was probably built in the early 16th century. All three are Grade II-listed with Historic England.

St. Ippolyts (near Hitchin in Hertfordshire) is a village that played a role when the Normans conquered Britain in 1066. This double-roofed timber frame home is one of the few older (16th century I would guess) buildings left in the village. Interestingly, the fireplace and chimneys are a massive separate construction that is attached to the house. Fuji X-Pro1.
Timber framing houses are quite rare in the Netherlands, you some in the south of Limburg and the lower Saxon parts of the Netherlands.
Built around 1350, the cottage was probably given the name 'clergy house’ because it was later owned by the Church. This thatched, timber-framed house is a rare survival from the 14th century; its oak frame is infilled with laths, some covered with lime-washed daub, others with late-Victorian cement render. The interior features a rammed chalk floor in the hall and moulded and crenelated beams. It was the very first building to be acquired by the National Trust, bought for £10 in 1896.

It is located on the German Timber-Frame Road.

Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire is owned by the National Trust. A Jacobean black and white timbered building which has no foundations and a roof weighing over 30 tons has been pulled out of shape and requires regular inspection to make sure it remains safe. Guess if it's stood this long it's good for a few more centuries!
This unassuming house was formerly an inn from C17 and probably earlier. Timberframed.

It's always a good idea to have a look into the backyards at Bietigheim wherever this is possibe. The building in this photo nowadays houses an academy of arts. The place was deserted when I was there, not only because of Covid but also because it was a Sunday.
Beyond the village pond in West Hagbourne, South Oxfordshire, is Green Thatch, a timber-framed cottage dating from the 17th century.
Chalgrove was a small linear village, its pretty cottages strung along the main street and the small stream that runs alongside. In the 1960's the village began to grow rapidly, and it now feels very suburbanised although a number of picturesque cottages still survive alongside the road and stream.
The Wildwood pasta restaurant (now itself closed) was the much missed De Grey's tearoom, not only a Ludlow institution but almost a national one, trading for just under a hundred years with traditionally dressed waitresses, white linen tablecloths and cake stands complete with doilies.
Beyond it on the far right, The Angel, once one of Ludlow's most prestigious coaching inns dating to the 16th century (only 27 very bumpy hours to London!).
Now a restaurant and wine bar (some beguiling images of the interior on google images.)
One of the loveliest small towns in England, Ludlow is dominated by the ruins of a huge royal castle, has more than 500 listed buildings and sits within a bend of the River Teme, all surrounded by the spectacular countryside of the Welsh borders.
Typical of the towns eclectic architecture; the Butter Cross of 1746 at the top of Broad Street, and the timber-framed building across the road, thought to have been built in 1462.
Built in the early 16th century as both as a high status house and storeroom of the highest quality.
This wing was the merchants store, the house itself faced onto Bridge Street.
The rather ungainly rooftop addition was added in the 18th century as a grain and sack hoist for barley when the building was adapted for malting.

Blick auf das ehemalige Dorfrathaus der Gemeinde Gödenroth im Hunsrück, welches 1976/78 in das Freilichtmuseum Roscheider Hof in Konz umgesetzt wurde.
Das Dorfrathaus wurde 1749 als einstöckiges Hirtenhaus errichtet. 1792 wurde das Gebäude zum Dorfrathaus ausgebaut. Dabei erhielt es ein Krüppelwalmdach mit Dachreiter und Glocke, welche die Gemeinderatsmitglieder zu den Sitzungen des Rats rief.

View of the former village council house of the municipality Gödenroth in the Hunsrück, which was moved in 1976/78 to the open-air museum Roscheider Hof in Konz.
The village council house was built in 1749 as a single-story shepherd’s house. In 1792 the building was expanded into the village council house. It received a cruck-hip roof with a small tower and a bell, which called the council members to the council meetings.

Thomas Oken's House.
Thomas Oken (d.1573) came from a humble family, but became the richest man in Warwick, making his fortune dealing in wool and woven fabrics. He lived during the reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I, during a period of great religious change and social upheaval.
Oken was married but died childless, and left his personal fortune to the town. His will arranged – amongst other things – for the payment of the salary of the schoolmaster, annual payments to ‘the poor’, the paving of certain streets, the repairing of the bridge, the wages of the herdsmen and the beadle, the repairing of the wells and the provision of a number of almshouses. The Thomas Oken Charity is still in existence today – and still owns this building, the rent for which goes towards good causes for the benefit of Warwick people.
In his will, Thomas Oken also provided for the spending of £1 annually on a feast, preceded by a service at St. Mary’s. The annual feast still goes on to this day, during which a toast is always given to Thomas Oken’s memory!

The Old Sun Inn is an enchanting and much-cherished Grade I-listed historic building in Saffron Walden, Essex, displaying some of the best pargeting—external decorative plasterwork added in the 17th century—in England. Originally medieval houses, later an inn, the property has since seen mixed commercial and domestic use.
This delectable (and knows it!) 17th century cottage stands overlooking the town's wide cricket pitch (which acts as its 'village' green) and the magnificent medieval church of St. Mary's.
Tudor House is a Grade II* timber-framed house in the village of East Hagbourne, South Oxfordshire, built in the late 17th century, with a substantial wing and thatched barn.

Snail Cottage, Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, South Oxfordshire
My fourth attempt over a long period, and still a struggle to get something respectable. It is such a lovely scene to the eye, yet bedevilled by wires, cables, telegraph poles, cars, refuse bins, TV aerials, etc. Still not great, but this one is probably as good as it is ever going to get.
