Wow amazing I always walk past this house. So interesting beautiful house

Walk past everyday. Always wanted to look inside. Thanks so much. Lived in Fareham all my life so a real treat. Brilliant that phone call. Just genius. Totally agree with your thoughts on the listed houses. I too live in Fareham in an old 17th century cottage. Its a privilege to look after the house as your right some people just leave them and let them crumble. Fareham Council should intervene and make people respect these old properties. Regards.

I knew of Henry back say 7 years ago, I lived in meon house 9 high Street.. he would lend us a hose and connect it up so we could fill a pool in the communal garden bless and he had his son's bike a retro bmx from the 80's and donated it to our son and just like his house it was in perfect condition and we still treasure it till this day!!.... I walked past today hense I see the 'find us on KZbin' .. the history not only around your house but the general area is rife and so exciting, I have enjoyed chats with you and your wife in the past and I'm so sorry for your loss. Good health to you Henry Palk, you are truly a wonderful gentleman and I'm so privileged to have grown up in fareham virtually all my life 44 years and met wonderful people like yourselves. You live in a truly magnificent spectacle of history and it's a joy to see how your have taken the best of care and shared this with us.. take care Henry 😍😃

Thank you Henry, you made your niece Sara Thomson (Webb) have a little cry when she saw her grandpa's trout. It's such a beautiful house, we'll be down to see you very soon x

I am pretty certain that I saw this property on an estate agents website recently. Liked the look of it then and wished I had the money to buy it then after seeing this now, wish even more that I had the money to buy it. Just hope that whoever buys it does not change the building at all inside. Love this building it is so interesting.

Thank you so much Henry for sending me this link. So nice to see and hear you talking about your marvellous house. You keep it looking great throughout the years ! So much souvenirs and good meals there. We did not know all about its story then... C'est un très bel hommage, merci.

Fantastic! So interesting, I remember coming to visit you when I was at university. An amazing house.

Wonderful tour of your facinating house, many thanks Henry for showing us around. I did eat in your restaurant a few times many years ago, think I went there on my eighteenth birthday with family, which was quite a while ago, ( I`m 57 now). I will view it in a different light next time I walk past!

[@adamprice9214]

That coffer is beautiful and is as old as the house 👀😱 that's incredible, I'd love to know more and if it's always been with the house and more about the priest hole, is it still accessible or has it long been blocked off... also why does this house have a priest hole was it somehow related to the church as it seems strange as it wasn't the closest of houses or did many houses have them?

[@spacejazz6272]
