Can These Extraordinary Historic Homes Be Restored To Glory? | Country House Rescue | Real Royalty

- 00:00:03 - Kelly House is a grade I listed manor house and estate located in the village of Kelly, Devon, overlooking Bodmin Moor. Members of the Kelly family have lived in the house for nearly one thousand years, but today their historic home is crumbling around them. Ruth suggests a plan that enables some conservation and reconstruction of the building to be done quickly, while also looking at revenue opportunities for the family to maintain Kelly House into the future.
00:47:56 - Whitbourne Hall is a grade II* listed neo-Palladian country house located in the village of Whitbourne, Herefordshire. The hall was converted into 23 flats in the 1970s, but has fallen into disrepair, and residents cannot agree on how to raise cash for repairs. Ruth suggests creating a luxury campsite in the surrounding gardens of the hall, as well as maximising its use as a wedding venue. But with so many residents having to agree to Ruth's ideas, will a plan of action for the crumbling house ever be acted upon?
01:34:54 - Abbey Dore Court is a Victorian country house and gardens located in the village of Abbey Dore, Herefordshire. Constructed in the late 19th century on the site of the former public house, Charis Ward bought the property in 1967, and converted the grounds into a plantsman's garden. Though the gardens are a popular attraction, the house has recently fallen into disrepair, and Charis's granddaughter Clare is determined to turn the formerly happy home around, with a little help from Ruth Watson.
02:21:59 - Gissing Hall is a listed 19th century mansion, situated in five acres of woodland and gardens in the village of Gissing in Norfolk, England. After falling into disrepair after years of neglect, William and Ann Brennan bought the property in 1986, with the intention of restoring it as a family home. However, financial constraints forced the Brennans to open the hall as a hotel. The hotel is struggling however, and Ruth Watson suggests new interior designs and a renewed focus on weddings and events at Gissing Hall to bring in revenue. Ruth also suggests that an experienced general manager should be recruited to help run the hall as a successful business.

I just looked up The Kelly House in 2023 & am so happy to see it’s now a BnB!! Beautifully renovated!! I’m always pleased when these fabulous historical estates are saved. Bravo to them & may it stay in their family for many generations to come!!! 👏🏻👩🏻🎨👍🏻🌹🌟
Thank you very much for your hint. ❤❤❤
I looked it up too to see if they made and it definitely has a new life
@@ValeriaVincentSancisi ...yes really beautiful
We must have been looking at different websites - it looks a mess and the furniture very old bed sit castoffs.

Love the mom, she’s a 💎 gem.
it is a shame there is little appreciation of these beautiful home within govts. excessive taxes make it very difficult to keep historic buildings and this throughout europe!
As an American I am overwhelmed by the beauty of these grand houses. I love the way they so casually say houses have been in the family 900 yrs, or when they refer the the Medieval portion without stopping to be agog for 3 minutes or so. It's like walking into huge, glorious historical works of art. Thinking of the grand houses destroyed after WWI hurts my heart. When you live in an old house you become part of its story. Seeing them saved is wonderful.
I remember being absolutely APPALLED when I heard that the gorgeous, rambling Victorian house that stood in for Lucy Honeychurch's family, Windy Corner, was TORN DOWN some years after the movie was made. It is so sad that buildings with grace and beauty get run down and end up getting torn down and ugly row homes or duplexes get built with no charm, no detail, just ugliness.
@@virginiasoskin9082 Yes, and we can save them when people who care will considering running for or volunteering to join the local Historic Society, Planning and Zoning, etc..
Loving Hugh Bonnevill’s narration.
These are SUCH beautifully historic buildings. It is truly a shame that they can't be restored to their original beauty and purpose. Being Canadian and having so few historical buildings, very few as old as those in Europe, I lament the loss of so much history.
ever heard of the regime seigneurial in Quebec and Acadia? we have tones of manor houses and little estates....people just ignore our history and pretend we are all migrants without history that's sad
The buildings - at least ones with historical significance - will be restored to former glory. There is not a place for grief and sorrow.
I will never forget my family history making that not so sad.

It's great that a reality docuseries can be productive, family-friendly watching (not a competition or hostile conflict). WELL DONE to the Kellys and Chris! The facilitating hostess is perfection too. . .
This house has Not very nice to me too much to do about has not value for

Having been in real estate in the Midwest for years...the problem with selling these structures are the sellers. They think they should receive what the home WOULD be worth if it was restored. They don't take into consideration the cost of restorations. And if they can't get what they want, the house sits there until its too far gone. I have seen a large number of historic homes torn down, just because the sellers wanted an insane price for them.
And to add to your point, Rayshell, the sellers also want to monetize emotional value, all the sentiment and personal connection THEY have to the run-down estate home; as if a buyer should/could/would pay for that!

One BIG thing to remember is Death Duties. After World War II the Estate was liable for two lots of Death Duties. When Warren's father died there was a third. Finally when his mother died, yet another. Death Duties run roughly 13% a time, so that takes a huge amount of money out of the coffers which means there is less and less money to keep up with maintenance. Repairing the roof could run to 7 figures.
Selling step by step. This is how the Danes do it.
OOO. That guy hit the nail on the head without even knowing it. They should make it into a spa getaway. Keep the residents' part away from the guest part. Those who want to work the spa can do so. Then, whatever assistance they need they could hire. The money from the spa could help make the repairs at first. Then, the profit for those who work it, after the home has been totally renovated. People who need training, could assist just like with the Kelly house. Hopefully, this idea might help them.
Sadly, it is often those of the family lineage who've inherited these estates, who are the worst suited to maintain them because they don't know how to save their money for the repairs as well as roll up their sleeves and do the work. Warren Kelly has apparently been spending much of his life on his hobbies such as building a car etc. He is in denial about the state of this house while it continues to lose its roof and cause irreversible loss. He is probably following the behavior of most of his former ancestral owners.
Let’s face it they are just over privileged lazy people who wants everything done for them!
Those death taxes are drastic, and seems like they've nearly bankrupted the family.
Old ideas can sometimes use new buildings. New ideas must use old buildings. Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more..
@@Florencecoxx That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Sarah Alma Martinez* my consultant. I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. I basically follow her trade pattern and haven’t regretted doing so.
You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, How can I be part of this project I earnestly hope to build a strong financial future I'm interested to take part, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
@sheilajensen This is the Fourth time I'm seeing someone talking about Sarah Alma as there are lot of testimonies about her, do you know her ? if yes , did you invest with her?
@@Florencecoxx It's 100% safe and legal, She’s an expert trader on stocks and bitcoin. I basically do nothing but collect profits, she was able to get me in early on most of these stocks and I exited just at the right time, her analysis was really on point
I don't know how things actually worked out, but I'd suggested a spa at Whitborn Hall. If you have a spa, there's massage, aromatherapy, yoga, and specialty things that spa retreats offer. You could combine that with the tent idea, and offer gardening therapy which would be a Homesteading type concept in a way. People enjoy reconnecting with land which would cut down on the work that all the residents have to do. Because some of the customers would do it and some hired help would do it as well as the hired help fixing the house. If you do weddings, you could offer a wedding with a honeymoon spa package. So you would make more money than 4,000 pounds. The combination of all these things should keep it calm, especially if the residents get to participate in the spa services whenever they need them. It's just an idea. I think it would be different and it would work. Plus, people would enjoy seeing each improvement made into the house because of their patronage.
That's a great idea, especially in keeping with the serenity of the landscape. It was seriously frustrating listening to the apartment owners who felt very entitled and unwilling to make any sacrifices at all.
Just looked it up and it seems like there a wedding venue now which is nice
As the old adage goes, "Out of sight, out of mind" and this home is definitely one of the forgotten ones. Or it, would be be occupied with a family and filled with laughter and joy. The old plantation home at first is very deceiving, it is so much grandeur and larger on inside than it appears on the outside. These old homes were a labor of love and appreciation back in the days. I believe it is the reason they can stand for centuries without as much as a drop of water inside. Id move into this place in a heartbeat. What a beautiful pad. Absolutely, gorgeous!!
This video was certainly a work of artistry. Thank you for sharing.

I've always dreamed of having a Georgian country house.
I could buy one, but restoring it would be too rich for my blood. Maybe a cottage...
Mabe they could sell some things that would bring in some money
Ruth is a genius. Too bad some of the clients cant see her vision. Sweat equity is a must in all of these cases and it looks as though some are more willing to sweat than others.
Yes, she is a visionary and a motivator.
My only "problem" with her is that there are times when she takes on a "whining nag" tone to her voice which would irritate the daylights out of me and actually cause me to shut down.
I agree! Ruth is no joke. But that family is not on the same page. Especially the daughters husband. His attitude reflects how he feel like “that is not his family” and why should he go with Ruth plans that require for him and his wife to invest their money for a family that isn’t his. But sometimes people just have to build the new the Older infrastructures. While using those hysterical holes ass hotels are air B&Bs. But Large outdoor “jumping gyms” for adults and children are really good investments to make money.
Well anyway! Besides those beautiful furnish tents; large “jumping Gyms” for adults and children with Large outdoor movie screens to play movies by projectors also are really good investments to make money. Not to mention really good music for all types generations works too
Kiwi here, from a hospitality background. What a winter wonderland Tom. I'm sure you picked up on this. All the best to you. I miss you on our screens Ruth🤗
Thank you for posting this video, I appreciate it. Be safe, healthy and happy. God bless you. Be well.
I think they could make so much money with that house... omg I see a gorgeous country estate waiting for people to explore and enjoy.
How can dad be just busy with his silly hobbies now, when he could have all the time to do it after he has income rolling in..
Sto guardando il sprego triste vedere marcire tale ricchezza de una grande aristocrazia bmediobal e un peccato dio sono castelli da un grande respeto culturale ❤❤
I'd like to see a couple of these stories where they actually had some success, and they were thriving and taking all of your suggestions. It just seems like all these don't want to do anything. They don't want to take your suggestions And don't want to make the changes so I don't understand how you can do this and work with these kinds of people. It's very frustrating just watching these people with their attitudes that they don't want to change.
@processfitness I think that they do want to accept the suggestions but they simply do not have the money to implement the suggestions. Its a catch 22 situation.
I have watched several videos from this channel and they have had great success 🤷🏼♀️ Sadly there are those families who are just not motivated to persevere the challenges of restoring these grand historical homes!
Remember, also, they're going to edit the footage to make people believe whatever the show wants. On the Kelly House website is says that those students who came to work there were only there as long as the show was taping. There was no contract made to have them there long term, which the house owners may not have known was the case.
Abby For Court was my favorite. It really touched my heart😢❤ The grandmother's stubbornness was expected But They are a Family 🥰🙏🏾
It is so utterly disheartening to own a Home one cannot afford to maintain. 😢 I have endured such a circumstance in the past.
Dang, i love this show!!!! I love these old wonderful homes. thanks for being a force in restoring them.
What a lovely home.
This is history, seriously, you will never see these historical sites ever again.
I really want to see after the work is done how the house looks. The houses were awesome. Thank you. Don’t let the house go down again folks. Goodluck in your business & I personally wanna visit the holiday rental someday.
‘You come from a long line of people who have idled their way around.’
I felt that. Same.
Perfect diagnosis. If your family lineage of the last 800 or so years is unable to locate a single soul that was employed, that might be your problem.
@@amywalker3647 lol that’s what I’m going to tell people

Virginia City Woman, I'm your biggest fan, It's just really rewarding to see a young family build their home in real time !
Too much procrastination and/or too many hands in the pot means that major decisions aren't being made to keep these grand country estates in the U.K. in good repair, restored and properly maintained. Many of them will continue to be lost to rot.
The Kelly daughter Sophie, is beautiful. There must be a portrait of a lady in the family past that resembles her.
A fun and interesting series, glad to have it available
Excellent......thank you for sharing the truth🌞
I’ve been following for over a year. I am so excited every day to watch the new videos. Thank you so much for sharing your journey. Watching that kitchen come
Together has been so exciting. But now I can’t wait for that library! I look forward to coming and staying there one day :)
Ruth is such an amazing lady. I hope she's doing well :)
The boyfriend thinks his (girlfriend’s) half finished flat in the Kelly House was a four to five star accommodation…not in my experience.
Did the think it already was or it could be? I missed that...
Either way, it's a great goal, but...nope, not family run and 5-star.
I think it takes a company/corporation to get the money to build it that high.
He wanted to get it just livable enough for them so they wouldn't have to rent it out.
i'd like to see a mix of this show and hoarders
Ruth, could aptly be named Ruthless. But, by any account it is what most people need to get cracking. Here, the mom was the only one with the right attitude. The dad seemed like the absent-minded professor, the daughter was willing enough but rudderless. Even Chris benefited from Ruth's no nonsense approach and frank demeanor. Congratulations Kelly Family, I'll plan to stay next time we're in Devon. Do you serve Devon clotted cream with scones for tea?
Please Rescue🏰🏠. They are full of history.
So fun to watch!! They are lucky to have her
Wonderful series, I thoroughly enjoyed this! I would’ve liked to of seen I’ll follow up a year later to see where they’re all at🕊
Wikipedia tells that 3 bedrooms are being used for 'B & B' accommodation and 'some' of the Kelly's are still occupying the house. Look it up. 🤗
This was one of THE best videos! I loooooovef listening to her and even her laugh...she has the best laugh! I loved the indoor and outdoor design. I was inspired hearing about how she began her business. She just seems like a fun down to earth best friend!
But I don't think it was the gardner that killed the vine....I think it was her husband and he allowed the gardner to take the blame 😂.
I'm actually about to watch the video again for the second time ....I truly enjoyed it
I think it would be brilliant if they hired people like me from the United States to spend a year there and work as a housekeeper or work as a gardener or work as a maintenance person.
Their position wouldn't be full-time but it would be enough to cover a roof over their head and food.
Of course these people will have savings and they will be able to experience living in the UK visiting all of the lovely rich history.
Find a way to get ahold of them.
thank you
I love all the items you got especially the the palm lamps. Just fabulous.
The host of the show seems to think that everyone should have at least her level of management & hospitality skills.
So loved what you did. Very clever ideas,great $ savings 👏
"Are you related to the Kelly family?" No "That's extraordinary!!" 😅😂😅
living on past laurels can only last few generation , go and do something productive , service or products
I have rarely seen a family who deserves help less than the Kellys. The degree of laziness by Warren is appalling. If I was his wife I would have left decades ago.
I agree, who lives in a house their whole lives, does no repairs at all, and then when it starts falling down around you expects others to fix it for free...?! The wood molding alone just needed some oil a couple times a year not let it dry out to the point it's falling off...?! At the least they could have kept a maintenance man around to keep up on everything, would have been cheaper in the long run.
Amen!!! Lazy..a degree of privilege that expects others to “do” for them…horrific.
That wife is an enabler… not putting her foot down. The daughter is not too far from her dad.. lazy, hanging around making chocolate? 🙄
I can’t continue watching… I see in comments it is now restored to a B&B. Should never have gotten to this condition.. feeling entitled is a curse.
I don't know. Yes, we shouldn't armchair diagnose over the internet, but... he strikes me as a bit neurodivergent. The very niche hobbies (old car, stained glass, canoe building), seems to focus on details instead of the larger picture, can't seem to set the right priorities (warm house for small children, fixing the windows) etc. He is just old enough to fall into the generation where milder forms of neurodiversity weren't diagnosed as long as the person could still "function" in society. And if neither his wife nor anyone else ever called him out or got him help... yeah, I don't think it's just laziness. At least not with him.
The lady totally called him out. She said he came from a long line of people that just lived to amuse themselves
I don't know, I think he seems just overwhelmed, verging on old age, and comes from a long line of people who never had much of a work ethic. I also think he's just avoidant with all his hobbies. I mean it might take a week and have a definite end to make a stained glass window, whereas the house is an open-ended black hole of work.
I'm thinking of a small village of tiny houses in the giant meadow. Victorian style homes, for retirees.
Yay! Count me in!
very good idea
The elderly need ready access to good healthcare and hospitals. Problematically, these old country estates were built at too much distance from these and other basic amenities, like grocery shopping.🖤🇨🇦
Agree with @nancyaylward1176. Bed and Breakfast would be fabulous.
Who would do the cooking?
I'm really curious to see when you finish the whole house. I'm looking forward to seeing the living room with the fireplace and book shelves.
Kind of like having an au pair from France come and take care of your children and teaching them!
Great series! Very hard to change the mind set of tradition and family feelings to business and make a living of the property. Are people really that close minded?
@crs6504 I believe that family members who have been isolated for so long might experience tripidation on the idea of sharing their living space with "strangers". After years of abundance, renting out rooms is perceived as "failure" yet times have changed - we are no longer living in that era of "explorers" travelling across the globe and bringing back lots of fortune! I am so proud of this generation of the Kelly family who accepted Ruth's wisdom.
I dont think the one gentelman is very ambishous
The people who are digging their heels in and not going with business ideas are hiding their heads in the sand. In any home, if you don't keep up with repairs, the home degrades. It will happen no matter how you stomp your feet. Please, give up your resistance and keep your home alive!
I do believe Castles or Estate should be tax free. With the changes of time , unless they have income from a business they are not able to afford help to keep these large homes from deteriorating. The Owners were not raised to clean, repair and even cook. So they are totally helpless. I came from an Estate in E. Prussia, the family completely relied on maids, gardeners and repair people. Yes we had money, but it would have come to a point where the family would have had to buy some kind of business for an additional income. Of course we did not come to that point as the Russians were near and we had to leave everything just with the clothes on our back and get evacuated to Germany. What money we had stayed in the Bank as my family believed we could return. 😊
What a trek you guys, that was phenomenal! I'm going to w atch Remains of the day later, in honor of this magnificent place
The books have to be worth a fortune, probably all first editions having been purchased generations ago.
Sell the collection, hire professionals to fix house-Boom problem solved.
Come to americas south and east coast! So many beautiful properties need her
Will be lovely. Hope the restoration is successful.
There should be.a fund to help them. So much history here.
There are many historic homes that are not on the scale of these mansions, that are torn down regularly to make way for housing developments selling shoddy McMansions. I live in an Arts and Crafts era home that has maintained its original decor to this day. The kitchen has been modernised, but in a style that blends in with the rest of the house. There are no government funds to help preserve these homes either. I have 19 rooms in total with a brick carriage house on the property. That is enough effort to keep up, let alone a huge country mansion.🖤🇨🇦
I will never understand how someone can be gifted an entire income generator and just let it rot. They had that house how long and couldn't think themselves "oh I better rent out a room or lead a tour or rent out land or lead a hunt so I can repair the rotten wall."
I would love to see an update ❤
24:46 The daughter looks like Ruben’s painting I bet she looks like one of her ancestors
i love the rolls royce for sure
Is it possible to put the home in a trust to reduce or eliminate the inheritance tax?
An American would say that, if this woman is bringing these estates back from the brink of sale or abandonment and converting them into functional businesses she should be wearing a cape and some little red boots because her rescue work is nothing short of heroic for the estate owners.
She is not a hero. Its a scripted show. its her job to put the houses on the right track. It would not be very successful if she failed at her job. Just this Americans opinion
Wow
Why laugh at people seeking help? That feels unhelpful, shameful and judgmental…I love to see people seeking help and growth and encourage us all to not feel ashamed for where we are in life…it’s a journey
Are there episodes where they show the finished work?
These people live in a dream world😒
Never ever have drapes with a floral design.
Be extremely careful about your design for your furniture.
Nothing crazy it has to be able to go in every other room you have.
That's classic and timeless!
Every room should flow right into the next.
I really never cared about what is in or out of style. I have my own style, and my own way, I choose to decorate my pads. No one lives in my home but myself and my furbaby. And as long as we are comfortable. I don't care what the neighbors or anyone thinks.
Clarisse feels the repairs of the house, the cost would be overwhelming. But somehow she does not want to express it…😅😅😅
Do tours!❤
If you don't have the funds you can't restore it.
Have you considered making a wing of the house a Air B&B ..that might pay for repairs?
Which house?
Wondering if you have ever heard of the King mansion in Winona, MN? There was also the Watkins mansion in Winona. Lumber was a major industry.
If I'm not mistaken, the "boyfriend " doesn't have a vested interest in the property. That'll be interesting, from a legal point of view.
As he said, he is putting in effort for benefits which others are reaping. (paraphrasing)
@@dross24MA Are you kidding. He is living rent-free on his girlfriend's family property and getting his paws into a home that is not his. He thinks he has scored and is trying to p i ss all over their property and make it his. And here you are thinking he is entitled to something and is being used. He's a con artist and the user. Acting like he is entitled to live on their property. He needs to pay rent or leave. Either way, it's none of his business and he's not entitled to anything. He's not even married into the family.
If I had gone into one of those rooms that were just painted the same day or the day before ( even with latex paint), as a bride or as a guest, I would have a severe asthma attack, as well as having my sinuses affected. I would've had to run immediately into fresh air or have gone to the emergency department ASAP. How were these people so assured that the bride or groom, and anyone else wouldn't have had significant sinus issues, and a severe asthma attack from being in newly painted rooms? I work as an emergency R.N. and I'm even on significant sinus and asthma medications, as well as an albuterol rescue inhaler and double Epipens, prescribed by my allergist. It still wouldn't take away the horrible effect of being in a freshly painted room. Significant to severe allergies and asthma are more prevalent among both children and adults, in every country, than many would dare to guess.
Complain much? For the few people with severe allergies like yourself maybe this wouldn’t be a good fit. I highly doubt they would have people renting a room that has just been painted the day before, give me a break. Most paints today are completely safe with people including pets children and the elderly. With the windows open after a couple of weeks the initial odour goes away. Plus other items are added= furniture rugs linen, they will be cooked in and slept in, it wouldn’t be a problem. It might surprise you that hotels banks hospitals civic buildings sports Plex’s, everywhere public gets a coat of paint now and again to keep it fresh and clean. I don’t know what you expected, after all this is a show on home improvement, painting is the first least expensive option to change and improve the feel of a room and brighten it up🕊
My goodness. Hypochondriac!
Whts your point.? They have to be painted. by by
@@daylehudson6810 They need to be painted a few weeks ahead of time with a portable Hepafilter run for a few days to take away the paint smell.
At least Chris admitted it was Sophie's money that paid for everything. Yet he's upset.
Why doesn’t he have any money???
It is hard to feel sorry for lazy privileged families. The thought of the village donating to the lords who sold off their ancestors farms and homes is kind of incredible. Maybe those families have left the village and the tresspasses of the Kelly ancestors have been forgotten.
It also is hard to comprehend how their country can impose upon generation after generation such *huge* inheritance taxes on those properties, taxes gauged on the estimated/resale/development value, and how it can sit idly by, watching them fall into disrepair as it does.
Taxes which, as noted in so many documentaries, actually caused the need to keep selling off those lands of which you so sarcastically speak.
Sometimes you just got to work with people according to their mindset instead of your mindset. But I noticed sometimes you got to play some really good soft music (Like the Isley brothers) to set tone to help people with your vision. Because a Musical atmosphere Influences people State of minds.
American here, but I've always been confused about this myself. In the states there's an inheritance tax, but to get around it if you know it'll be huge, is you sell it to the family member that you want to receive it for $1 before you die. Is that not something that can be done in the UK?@@dross24MA
I'm so offended that this estate isn't being taken care of, it's soon amazing
They show several estates.
Which one do you mean?
grate
The theme of these homes and their issues are people who want a place to live without being able to afford it. A lot of denial, some laziness and a good dose of passiveness.
Wish i could give this ten thumbs up
31 generations? Wow
Thank you for your informat and interesting video. You didn't mention it so i am curious to know what the total weight of your backpack was?
The Tudor flat looks inhabitable.
Grund für den schnellen Verfall englischer Herrenhäuser sind die ungünstigen Dachkonstruktionen und die reparaturanfälligen Dachentwässerungssysteme. Kelly Haus ist glücklicherweise gerettet worden.
Ruth 🌸🌸🌸
Why paint what hasn't been repaired?
Guests will reap the benefits and PAY the family, who will reap the ultimate benefits.
I think the crown should allocate monies to the estates since the title Squire does seem important. I don't think that Chris should be doing it. He's looking to live there as is I'd think so. Sophie has a vested interest by using her savings
900 yrs and your the one that loses it there has to be incredibly painful
😂La fille de Cabelli Rosso Ricoo ressemble un peu à Louis (XIV) elle semble apparentée 👍😊
I love this series but the music is too loud. It surely should backgound.
Those taxes killed a lot of country estates
And yet these ‘poor’ landowners still own all of the land and people like my relatives are still paying generations and generations later rent for farming.
That's just old England.
Move to the USA like my ancestors did. I have royal blood in my veins, but my ancestors were not the elder sons. You're English, you know that is how it goes. Thanks for your reply.
Why don’t they sell some of that book collection
Abbey Dore Court sold to new owners in 2018. The gardens are no longer open to the public.
