@@figmento1 the only excuse I heard was that an artist tried to claim money from the library because their art was damaged by the sun when exhibited in the window. More recently I was told that it was a management decision and management decisions were final. Who knows🤔

I visited Lyme today. I've visited a lot of old homes over the last few days, joked with my daughter about hauntings, but sensed nothing at all. The minute I stepped foot in the Knights Bedroom, I thought "this one actually is haunted". I didn't know anything about the room. I had no knowledge of its reputation. It wasn't until I read the information sheet by the window, that I knew I was right. Thanks for filling in the blanks
