Beautiful ! Thank yuu - seems there is no end to the gorgeous old homes of Europe - I'm a Brit in the US, and l learn more about these things now from KZfaq than I ever knew in my youth ! We should be very thankful that the National Trust etc take these places over & keep them from rotting away, which has happened to too many old places in the past. Thisd house is warm & inviting & looks very loved !

We must be cousins (however many times removed). My mother's surname is Strickland, and I have traced my ancestry back to England. Do you have much information on the Stricklands in America. Our ancestors here, seem to originate in Virginia and Georgia. I'd love to hear from you if we might be able to share information. 😊❤️

Hello Andrew. I am a Strickland descendants in Oregon. Do you happen to be in possession of much history on the first Stricklands in America? My ancestors here seem to have started out in Virginia and Georgia. I would love to see if we could exchange information. 😊

Hello Terry. My mother is a Strickland as well. Do you have much information on the Stricklands in America? My ancestors seem to have first settled in Virginia and Georgia. Would love to find out if we could share information. 😊

Beautiful. I'm happy they didn't paint the wood white, like the idiots in America. Americans see wood and immediately paint it white.
