Tour of Ashby de la Zouch Castle,Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England.
Ashby de la Zouch Castle is a partically ruined fortification in the town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England.
As with many of the castles, priories and ruins I visited in the Covid summer of 2020, it's the detail that I find most interesting: Cannon ball pot marks, construction techniques and more.

Gibside Hall, Gardens & Derwent Caravan Park. (4K)
Gibside is an estate in the Derwent Valley in North East England. It is between Rowlands Gill, Tyne and Wear and Burnopfield, County Durham, and a few miles from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Gibside was previously owned by the Bowes-Lyon family. It is now a National Trust property. Gibside Hall, the main house on the estate, is now a shell, although the property is most famous for its chapel. The stables, walled garden, Column to Liberty and Banqueting House are also intact.
History
The Blakiston family acquired the estate by marriage in about 1540. Sir William Blakiston (1562–1641) replaced the old house with a spacious mansion between 1603 and 1620. Both the Royal (King James I of England) coat of arms and the Blakiston coat of arms are seen over the entrance of the old Hall. The Gibside property came into the possession of the Bowes family in 1713; a result of the marriage in 1693 of Sir William's great-granddaughter, Elizabeth Blakiston, to Sir William Bowes (1657–1707) of Streatlam Castle (now demolished).
Until 1722, the basis of the Bowes' influence was their own estate and house of Streatlam Castle, County Durham. However, after that date the acquisition through marriage of the Blakiston estate of Gibside gave the Bowes family an even greater influence in the north of the county and a share in the immense wealth that was to be acquired from the coal trade. The Blakiston estate included some of the area's richest coal seams.
In 1767 the granddaughter of Sir William Bowes – the Bowes heiress Mary Eleanor Bowes – married John Lyon, 9th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, who changed his surname to Bowes due to a provision in her father's will that any suitor had to take the family name. This was a device to continue the Bowes lineage in the absence of a male heir. The estate remained in the Bowes and Bowes-Lyon family until the 20th century.
After the split inheritance dispute following the death of John Bowes, 10th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne in 1820, it belonged to his legitimated son John Bowes until his death in 1885 (he is buried in the Gibside chapel), when under the entail it reverted to his cousin the 13th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. It had been the main residence of John Bowes' mother, Mary Milner, by then Dowager Countess of Strathmore, and her second husband, the politician Sir William Hutt (who had been John Bowes' tutor), until the latter's death in 1882, which was the last time it was permanently occupied by the family.
Improvements to Gibside carried out by the Bowes-Lyon family in the 18th and early 19th centuries included landscaping, Gibside Chapel, built between 1760 and 1812, the Banqueting House, a column of Liberty, a substantial stable block, an avenue of oaks and several hundred acres of forest. The top floor of the main house was remodelled as a giant parapet, and the building was also extended to the side.
The chapel reflects the Calvinist leanings of the family, and though nominally Anglican, the interior is dominated by a huge and centrally placed three-decker pulpit. There is a house for the minister/chaplain nearby. Some holders of the position would not have been able to hold a Church of England parish living, on account of their views. The leading Palladian architect James Paine is attributed with most of the work of the 1750s and 1760s.
The Banqueting House, Gibside was built in 1746, and is an early example of Gothic Revival architecture, of the early form often called Gothick. It has now been restored and is available for letting by the Landmark Trust, who now own it.
Gibside's main house is not the focal point of the estate: the long walk runs from the Column of Liberty to the chapel and the mansion is located to one side. Like the Orangery nearby it sits at the top of a steep slope leading to flat meadows and the river. Carriage drives thread through the estate, and the stable block, Banqueting House, and other buildings are all spread out along them.
Derwent Park Caravan Site.
Derwent Park is situated in Rowlands Gill. The park is often incorrectly called Rowlands Gill Park as a result. The park has a caravan site and has many play areas for children. Fishing on the River Derwent, which runs through the park The fish include brown trout, grayling (species) and Atlantic salmon.
Small quiet site 15 mins from Newcastle situated in the Derwent Valley. Tent area is a natural wood with wild flowers and Caravan Park is grassed with hardstanding and electric to all.
Late Autumn Road Trip Drive To Visit Erskine Church In Burntisland Fife Scotland
Tour Scotland late Autumn travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish music, on ancestry visit to Erskine Church in Burntisland in Fife. Erskine church was built in Burntisland in 1903 as a Free Church to replace an 18th century church of the same name. It is located on a prominent site, overlooking The Links parkland and then South across Burntisland's expansive bay and the Firth of Forth. It sits within small garden grounds on a corner plot and there is housing to the north, west and east. The earliest historical record of the town was in the 12th century, when the monks of Dunfermline Abbey owned the harbour and neighbouring lands. The settlement was known as Wester Kinghorn and developed as a fishing hamlet to provide food for the inhabitants of Rossend Castle. The harbour was then sold to James V by the abbots of Dunfermline Abbey in exchange for a parcel of land. The land was granted royal burgh status by King James V in 1541. When the status was confirmed in 1586, the settlement gained independence from the barony of Kinghorn and was renamed Burntisland, possibly a nickname from the burning of fishermens' huts on an islet now incorporated into the docks.
The surname Erskine was originally derived from the lands of Erskine, which is an area to the south of the River Clyde in Renfrew. The name is believed to be ancient or Old British for green rising ground. The Erskines were staunch supporters of the Clan Bruce. Sir Robert de Erskine was an illustrious and renowned figure of his time. King David II of Scotland appointed him keeper of the strategic Stirling Castle. In 1350 Sir Robert Erskine was appointed as Chamberlain of Scotland and justicar north of the Forth. Erskine was also one of the nobles who established the succession to the throne of King Robert II of Scotland, who was a grandson of the great Robert the Bruce and the first monarch of the Stewart dynasty in 1371.

white castle.mp4
White Castle is the best preserved of the Three Castles, namely, White, Skenfrith and Grosmont. The heart of this castle is surrounded by powerful round towers.
The Three Castles are usually grouped together because for a large part of their history they were part of a block of territory under the control of a single lord, Hubert de Burgh.
Hubert had gleaned a great deal about military architecture from his time fighting in France. He rebuilt Skenfrith and Grosmont in stone, adding domestic apartments to both castles, so that they could be used as lordly residences. However, this doesn't seem to have been the case with White. Rather than a nobleman's residence, it seems to have been built for military work. A workhorse of a castle, you might say. The internal buildings did, however, include a chapel, hall and kitchen, but were more befitting a garrison commander than a great lord.
After Hubert de Burgh, the Three Castles were held in royal hands, and in 1254 Henry III granted them to his eldest son, the future Edward I. The rest is, as they say, history!
Cragside | The Craggs' Visit Cragside
Cragside || The Craggs' Visit Cragside - A National Trust property - The first house in the world to be fully lit by electric powered lights, the power generated through hydroelectricity within the Cragside estate. The pump house was closed when we visited as it is being refurbished. Also there was a seasonal closure in place for the upstairs of the house. We will have to go back again as we didn't get to the formal gardens and some others bits. A great day out though, Fletcher really enjoyed the playground (footage not included). #NationalTrust #Cragside
Also as a footnote Cragside House was used as an inspiration for the outside of Lockwood Manor in the feature film Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom.

Además, disfrutamos muchísimo preparando estos viajes, leyendo las vivencias de otros bloggers.
Nos consideramos más aventureros que viajeros. Nos gusta encontrar los rincones más insólitos, probando todo tipo de comidas y acercándonos a la gente local

Gibside Hall- 1984
A rare look at the inside of Gibside Hall , taken in 1984 using a two piece camera & recorder . Camcorders were only just coming onto the market. Picture quality leaves a lot to be desired , but it has been transfered twice : v2000 to VHS ,then to PC as I didn't have the original . Looking at recent pictures the Hall is totally different now, but in 1984 it was overgrown and difficult to walk around. A nice place though.
