The Sunday Rule

Our Sunday rule dictates that we go out rather than stay in studying on a Sunday, this weekend the weather has been cold and wet so a cream tea and a walk around Calke Abbey seemed to be a good excuse to leave the study books and venture out.
Calke is the unstately, stately home which has been carefully preserved in its state of disrepair, it actually has several rooms in good repair and is absolutely full of wonderful and interesting artefacts from past lives....

From stately rooms to the servants kitchens and the wine cellars, everything has been preserved as it was found...












Photography was very tricky,  the light was poor today & the windows boarded up so a little artistic licence was the order of the day.....
