Off to National Trust’s Lyveden New Bield this morning for a wander around.
Welcome!
Looks like we were last here back in December 2017 and since then, it’s had a fair bit of money spent on it. Everywhere had received a serious makeover, there was a new car-park and the Manor House was now open to the public. Actually, it was all pretty impressive – and that was before we got to Tresham’s building!
The Manor House
A short talk by one of the volunteers – Neil – in the ‘Red Room’ gave us a real insight into Tresham’s life.
It was a great experience with so much more to see here! 😁. Even without a roof, ‘Liveden’ looked impressive…
On this visit, we were even able to get UNDERNEATH… (I don’t recall being able to do that last time))
We finished up in their (rather enormous) Café for a small beverage before heading back to the car. We both agreed that the visit had offered much more than we expected – well done National Trust!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
