If the entail on property ended in 1925 how do a few great families manage to keep the title and the estate together?

Marrying wisely has been a good strategy for acquiring assets, holding on to them for this long is the challenge.

Amazing Estates and Mansions, it's a wonder how the family retained the wealth and are able to maintain the Mansions, Gardens and Estates 👌

very nice chunk of information

Most rich family's fail to raise the kids to make even more money. The Rothchild's pulled it off and now have so much money .

I am a decedent of some of the Dukes or Norfolk so it is on the gemological tour should I ever go to England again.

Thank you for a very informative video.

How about a video on Alnwick Castle?

I truly enjoyed this episode. As an American, episodes such as this, are my way of visiting places I might not ever get to visit.

COMMENT: Which iconic British castle would you like us to feature next on this channel?

I did visited the Hearst Castle in 1975, It looked great back then.

Augustus ''Pew gin'' not Poogen Love the video with so much detail from all your research

Can you imagine the capers watching this and reminiscing the good ol days of respectable crime. Antique restoration here, just north of Boston.

The Kennedy's aren't considered old money in Massachusetts.

Many years ago I read a romance book based on the life of Bess of Hardwick. Even if only a part of it is true she still was an inspiring woman. A determined woman.

We visited the castle on our honeymoon in 1978. The parking was $5, and the ticket for the ground level tour was $10 per person. We thought that was high, but worth the experience.

No one cares about others' history. They've cared about themselves.

World over best buildings are destroyed for roads and other reason that make way for modern ideas of design etc.

Such a shame that they didn’t keep the old Gothic structure, which is one of a kind and history passed down through the ages. Instead, they made a box shaped concrete, stamped pad mansion that everybody else has.

We had a repair shop in Aptos California, where we had contact with many state park employees, they would tell stories of the closed years, while they were posted at Herst Castle they would have swim party BBQs, swimming in the Gretchen pool and jumping off the lions head into the pool, boys will be boys

I'm a proud member of the Hearst Castle Foundation. It's really one of the biggest world wide art collections in one place. All open to the public for their enjoyment and education.

I have visited Hearst Castle 6 times. I loved it every time. I was just there in 2023. I could go there every year, it's lots of fun, I would recommend to go and see it if you've never been.

I went when I was about 15, back around 1972. Have photos with my parents.

The first time was when i was a kid in 1972. Over the years, I've been back several times with my own kids. Love the area, and some of the best clam chower in California is in Morro Bay

I toured that mansion many years ago. Beautiful

I could use a little loot cousin.

Buster Keaton’s final home was torn down about 3 yrs ago however his Beverly Hills Villa has been refurbished

Everybody knows about Chatsworth (where the Cavendish lives), but doesn't know about other country homes who still standing or torn down.

Handy they managed to marry so many heiresses.

Charles Schwab 💰 When i dream of money,this is the first man that would pop up in my head throughout my childhood - This man is the definition of Wealth & Opulence ❤

Pickfair should not have been demolished! It should've been declared a historic landmark and restored. Shame on people who purchase historic buildings just to demolish them. Of course that decision came from a foreigner; he had no emotional connection to it at all.

This place better watch out for masonic arsonists. (my lunch break) Seems some secret group is making all kinds of excuses to destroy or 'get at' this "old world" building.

Peregrine is a name reserved solely for the British upper class

Chatsworth, where it is more economical to gild the windows rather than paint them (i.e. the gold will last for 30 - 40 years, they would need to be painted about every 8 years - from a televised tour given by the 11th duke). It's a pity that th Paxton greenhouses are no longer standing at Chatsworth. There are 2 missing homes. Hardwick Hall had to be donated to offset brutal death duties of the duke who died just before the family trust became official. Like all too many city mansions in cities like London, New York, Chicago, etc., Devonshire House was sold to be demolished for new construction.

Thank you. Very nice tour. Beautiful estates.

COMMENT: Have you visited any of these lovely Cavendish estates - or would like to?

I grew up north of there outside Foxborough and it used to freak me out that these castles were like the summer homes of the super rich on the 19th century. They spent like a couple weeks there a year, places so big they would never use 1/10th of the space inside even with guests or parties. it's all just so creepy

Too bad it's in California.

a waste of time an money

I certainly remember grand Central Station in a 1960s 70s and 80s before the beautiful restoration. Very thankful this beautiful building was saved. I live in Westchester County take metro north to and from

We saw the Biltmore and all the mansions in RI. My favorite is the Breakers. It had everything. Beautiful home, ocean views from every part of the home, the Cliff walk. So much history and antiques which is what I love.
