Tyntesfield House

[wellinghall]

We went to the wonderfully gothic (and just plain wonderful) Tyntesfield House yesterday. After a walk through the grounds, where we heard and saw a jay, and heard a greater spotted woodpecker, we had a tour of the house, led by a guide and a conservator.

Staff were packing up the house ready for filming - "Watch the BBC this time next year" was all they were allowed to say.

This is the house:

What a fascinating building. And, like you, I am rather taken with that tree.

Wonderful, aren't they.

A guessing game! ie about what the BBC might be filming there. :) Ummm... it's a cheerful-seeming house, so I don't think anything grim or ghoulish. An amiable family saga, I'd suggest. Needs to be fairly upper-class, though... Trollope? as a Palliser residence?

Something period, definitely; the staff were taking twentieth century books off the shelves, to be replaced my older ones. I like your guess of Trollope.

Impressive, isn't it.
