Now that’s not (right) Great Hall Yorkshire, monolithic and to say that as a kid I didn’t stay glued to Saturday morning cartoons or cheesy primetime Grand Salon Yorkshire. sitcoms. It’s just that for me, television lost its luster when reality shows took to the air with their ridiculously unrealistic premises. And as popularity of cable dramas grew, I actually prided myself on not being able to add to the morning discussions in the office about the prior night’s episode of biker fights or unexpected mob hits. But then one day I overheard a co-worker Sunday evening and the show’s title popped gushing about a series she was watching up on my screen. There was nothing else on that she was completely addicted to. Now so I thought that it couldn’t hurt to see what this was a person whose taste and opinion all of the fuss was about.

Famously recognized for their passion for violets, orchids, and most importantly, roses, it was inevitable that those of a certain affluence would begin to insist that the elaborate metal and glass enclosures become a permanent addition to the footprint of the family manor. Inspired by the slight and graceful arches that were so often incorporated into the design of these stunning English and Victorian structures, the Conservatory pattern provides a calming, nurturing aesthetic.Resting in scale between the patterns of Grand Salon and Great Hall, Conservatory is the consummate companion product to effortlessly connect the functionality of space and design style. 12 MANOR HOUSE 13 14 (page 14 and above) Conservatory Norfolk MANOR HOUSE 15 SPECIFICATION style conservatory 6582 broadloom construction textured patterned loop fiber type Encore® BCF nylon with ColorLoc® Plus dye method solution/yarn dyed ounce weight 26 oz (882 grams) gauge 1/12 (4.72 rows/cm) backing PremierBac® Plus size 12 ft (3.66m) 16 style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom color 1828 color 1829 color 1830 kent sussex yorkshire style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom color 1831 color 1832 color 1833 cornwall somerset devon style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom style 6582 broadloom color 1834 color 1835 color 1836 oxfordshire norfolk surrey MANOR HOUSE 17 18 (above) Conservatory Oxfordshire.

With slow rolling hills subtly transforming into manicured beds of flowering color and perfectly coiffed shrubbery, each stately home was perfectly framed with unassuming grandeur. Hidden within these sprawling landscapes one would often find a smaller discreet garden that was strictly for the occupants of the manor to relax and entertain in an outdoor space. Each private garden could be accessed by a modest garden gate that typically was adorned with vines of jasmine or wild roses. This was the inspiration for Manor House’s Garden Gate. 22 MANOR HOUSE 23 24 (above) Garden Gate Norfolk. (page 24) Garden Gate Surrey.

  • Location, Location, Location by Pam Horack Page 15
    Nancy Drew: Location, Location, Location by Pam Horack Page 15 Nancy’s World (to me) In real estate, the mantra is “Location, Location, Location”. As in a story, the right setting can be an effective plot device and can be used to evoke specific feelings. The Nancy Drew books often used a location to create the backdrop for the mysterious and adventurous. As a child, I was able to use my grandparents’ home as a true reference for many of the Nancy Drew settings, thus bringing the stories to life and turning me into Nancy Drew Green’s Folly, located in Halifax County, Virginia, was home to my maternal grandparents. As my mother was raised there, our family visited frequently. The estate has served many functions through the years: county courthouse, a racetrack, a farm, and currently an 18-hole golf course, which was originally developed by my grandfather, John G. Patterson, Jr. As a child with a vivid imagination, my senses were aroused by mysterious features of the old home. This was the world of my childhood and it made a natural location for many of my adventures with Nancy Drew. As many of the Nancy Drew stories involved large old estates, my mind easily substituted the real world for the fictitious. There seemed to be too many coincidences and similarities for it to be otherwise. I found my imagination using Green’s Folly as the backdrop for the following stories: 1. The Hidden Staircase 2. The Mystery at Lilac Inn 3. The Sign of the Twisted Candles 4.

  • Denver International Airport Breaks Ground on Phase 2 of the Great Hall Project
    [email protected] 24/hr. Media Line: 720-583-5758 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Denver International Airport Breaks Ground on Phase 2 of the Great Hall Project DENVER – July 7, 2021 – Today, Denver International Airport (DEN) Chief Executive Officer Kim Day was joined by Alan Salazar, Chief of Staff for Mayor Michael B. Hancock; Larry Nau, TSA Federal Security Director, Colorado; and Derek Hoffine, Hensel Phelps Vice President and District Manager for a groundbreaking ceremony for Phase 2 of the Great Hall Project. The primary focus of Phase 2 is to enhance security by building a new security checkpoint on Level 6 in the northwest corner of the Jeppesen Terminal. “The new security checkpoint will have improved technology and a new queuing concept that will provide more effective and efficient security,” said Day. “These improvements combined with the new ticketing pods being constructed as part of Phase 1 will ultimately allow us to build a terminal for the future with enhanced security, increased capacity, improved operational efficiency and an elevated passenger experience.” All Phase 2 work will be done in in mid-2024. However, the new checkpoint is scheduled to open by early 2024. Passengers will then have access to the new checkpoint on Level 6 as well as the north checkpoint and the existing A-bridge checkpoint. Additionally, the new checkpoint on Level 6 creates a future opportunity to activate the vacated south security space on Level 5 with new concessions and improved meeter/greeter amenities. “As DEN continues to grow, it is critical that we invest in the airport and prepare for the future.

  • THE TWELFTH-CENTURY AISLED HALL of LEICESTER CASTLE: a RE-ASSESSMENT Nick Hill
    THE TWELFTH-CENTURY AISLED HALL OF LEICESTER CASTLE: A RE-ASSESSMENT Nick Hill A recent programme of research, accompanied by archaeological excavation and dendrochronology, has confirmed the Great Hall of Leicester Castle as the earliest known standing aisled hall in Britain, now tree-ring dated to 1137–62. It was built for Earl Robert II of Leicester, one of the greatest magnates of the period, probably in the 1150s when he was at the height of his powers. The form of the main twelfth-century roof structure, with timber arcades and a former clerestorey, was established in previous work of the 1980s. The current study has added detailed analysis of the external masonry walls, including the uncovering of two service doorways. Archaeological excavation established that the aisle posts were originally earth-fast. Drawing on earlier documentary study, a revised reconstruction of the original building form is proposed, relating the upper roof structure to the original masonry walls, aisles and floor level. Evidence indicates that a small service building was attached to the north gable, with a detached chamber block located to the south. The relationship of Leicester to other early aisled halls is also explored. INTRODUCTION The Great Hall of Leicester Castle is a remarkable survivor. Of the rest of the extensive castle buildings, which reached their heyday under John of Gaunt in the late fourteenth century, little remains except for parts of two gatehouses. The Great Hall itself underwent major alteration in the early sixteenth century, was entirely re- fronted in the 1690s, subdivided internally in 1821, and further altered and extended in 1858.

  • What Part Did Decorative Plasterwork Play in the Transformation of the Great House Before 1660?
    What part did decorative plasterwork play in the transformation of the Great House before 1660? Annika McQueen June 2018 Decorative plasterwork has become one element that characterises the image of the Great House in England. Wide-ranging social and economic change accompanied the end of the medieval period and the arrival of the Tudor dynasty in 1485. The domestic stability England enjoyed during the Elizabethan period was cemented by the end of hostilities with Spain when James I ascended the throne1. As a result, substantial change occurred in the form, function and internal decorative design of the Great House. As will be exemplified in this essay, plasterwork continued to be important as a decorative material in the Caroline period and reflected changing fashions in architectural and artistic design. In this essay I will argue that this change was more of an evolution than a transformation, as it occurred slowly over a long period of time. In 1501 Henry VII granted a charter to the Worshipful Company of Plasterers of London, giving the trade formal recognition and attesting to its rising popularity as a material.2 As Beard has pointed out, Plaster and Stucco are distinct entities; the best plaster being derived from burning gypsum and the more usual kind of English plasterwork being comprised of slaked lime, sand and a binding agent such as hair.3 Stucco is derived from the addition of marble dust to slaked lime, rather than sand or hair.4 Gapper comments that the term ‘pargetting’ was used in the sixteenth century to mean internal as well as external plastering; alongside the term ‘plaster’.5 For the purposes of this essay, ‘plasterwork’ will be taken to include both plaster and stucco work and will focus on the role internal decorative plasterwork played in the evolution of the Great House.
