Calke Abbey (pronounced Cork)

Here in Derbyshire for a funeral of one of Jane's side of the family.  This is the @Unstately Home' where things have been allowed to decay, showing what would happen if homes were not looked after.  This is the shower.  The house was left to the government to meet death duties and then to the National Trust. Worth a look around, but had mixed memories for me. The family member volunteered here and Jane I visited many times.  Anyway I was able to chat to people so that helped.
Thanks for comments and stars and normal service will be resumed shortly.  I appreciate all stars and comments, many make me smile and it does feel like you are having a conversation.  Cheers everybody.
