Title: Local house featured on TV
Post by: poppy on July 30, 2012, 07:36:34 PM

The Elms / Elm Farm, Bright Street, North Wingfield is the topic of Restoration Home on BBC2 on Wednesday night at 8pm. A friend of mine has been involved as the local historian. Might be good. :)

Thanks for that poppy, I'll give a whirl - quite like those programs.

Plus it'll be a break from watching folks running, jumping, swimming, diving, shooting, etc etc  :-\

I'm hoping it's going to be good. My friend has put alot of effort into it. They talked to him for hours but will probably only show a few minutes, if that. The house / farm apparently has a lot of interesting history - supposed to be haunted etc  :)

But what if you don't believe in ghosts?  ;)

Watched the second half of it - got my times mixed up. Good program, the house looks great now. :)

Loved all that stuff about being born out of wedlock. I think he might have been closer to the servants than he should've been... ;)
