thank you . you can see thef ire damage on the right hand side. was up for sale not long ago £13 million

Just read up on this. Remarkable place.

Sadly the house was struck by fire in 1940, while requisitioned by the military, which destroyed one of the large rooms in the central block and subsequent dry-rot resulted in a large part of the roof being removed. This was not replaced until the 1980s but the fire-damaged room remains abandoned and in need of restoration.

Quite swanky inside. The Mrs would like this, but a little to posh for me :wink:
