2/4 Wentworth Woodhouse (Ep4) - The Country House Revealed

[@40rty7even4]

Absolutely splendid. After a long day hunting, one needs to unwind in a palatial residence.

[@thibomeurkens2296]

Its all perfectly splendid

[@harperwelch5147]

Good news. The house is being restored by English Heritage. Not done yet, but saved from further damage with an all new roof!

[@harperwelch5147]

The best documentary on this house is included in “The Country House Revealed”, covering four grand homes not open to the public, broadcast 11 years ago. Photography and narration is flawless.

While beautiful, it's a sad, dreary, empty shadow of it's former glory...

[@solariustikaram7872]

not unless I win it first lol

[@harperwelch5147]

It’s being restored now !

[@halfawaterbuffalo]

wonderful

[@andylumehriverofliferev.2254]

Great. Country house. Today the owners of this house could lease out portions of the estate to individual wealthy families and companies. It will be as leasing luxury apartments to wealthy Tennants. . Proceeds from the lease payment will finance the maintenance and keep the profit.

Anybody watching this read the book black diamonds brings the house and its people to life

Love the 1724 baroque house - could someone give the snake his tail back?!

The house needs to be powerwashed. It looks beautiful, but would be even more so if it was clean.

[@bulkingup]

What a silly idea

[@thibomeurkens2296]

@@bulkingup why?

[@rovers4lyfe]

That’s it’s history that’s why the book was called black diamonds for one reason coal The area would have been have been covered in smoke from the mines

He’s whispering outdoors?!?

[@CallieMasters5000]

Shhhhh! He's building suspense by making you wonder why you can't hear him!

[@Tina06019]

It’s just his manner of speaking.

[@anthonytindle5758]

The house is showing a century of being in the middle of a coal burning area so it all needs a good power wash to spruce it back up a little its now showing age with the sut covered exterior.

[@dennisb9309]

Just not getting this. Love architecture but clearly what we’re dealing with here is grandiose pathology. So this is less architectural history than abnormal psychology.

[@inlangford]

Ya, I'd vote for someone who let me in their MANSION and eat and drink all night, sure why not right!?
