Two nicely exposed internal shots with lots to look at and enjoy..............that huge fireplace is amazing and I love the idea of the "hobs" in the PiP.

What a great idea to restore it to its original look.........and it looks like they did an excellent job. The story of the restoration in the link is fascinating.........thanks for sharing it Rosa.

Rosalyn Hilborne has replied to Keith Burton ^club

It must have got very hot in the kitchen Keith. Probably a bonus in winter but they had their work cut out all year round.

Thank you very much for your kind comment and taking a look at the link.
Have a great week.

Hi Rosa
A wonderful and interesting picture, which I like very much!
Very nice composition, and really well presented with the illuminated fireplace.
All that is missing is the pig roasting on the spit!
Best Wishes, and stay safe!!

Buena y bonita serie de la cocina. Me ha recordado a otras vistas en castillos franceses. Buen jueves, aquí festivo y sigue soleado, Rosa. El sábado llega por fin la lluvia para quedarse hasta el 20 octubre.

Thank you for your kind comment Jose Manuel. I'm sure it is very similar to the French castles of the same period. Enjoy the sunshine while it's there :-))

Eric Desjours ^club

This story is incredible, especially considering the remarkable aesthetics of this arch and fireplace! The restoration is perfect and the lighting has given you the opportunity to create an image of great beauty.
Your second perspective in a soft daylight caresses the eye with great pleasure!
I wish you to have a lovely weekend, Rosa.
