This Wealden Hall House was saved from being flooded by a new reservoir, by being moved about 55 miles to the Weald and Downland Open air Museum.
My favorite building on the whole site. I remember visiting this as a child, all children remember this house because of the toilet! There is a photo album in the building which is well worth looking at as it shows the building before it was taken down. After thirty years of visiting I married my wife at the museum and had our photos taken in and outside this very special building. The finest building of its type at the museum. Thanks for sharing ..
That's great.
Such a beautiful old house. The woodwork is fantastic! I love the way the beams fit together and to think made so many years ago! The furniture woodwork is a work of art, Thanks Harry for bringing a bit of your world into ours, as I could never hope to be able to visit such a place, But would love too! Take care.
It sure looks a lot like the Locksley manor house that was in the TV series Robin Hood. Nice timberwork, and love the simple furniture! Thanks for sharing Harry!
This is a wonder reference for 3D modeling. Thank you so much!
It's a beautiful house and I love the way it is constructed. I really need to visit the Weald and Downland Museum some day. Thanks for sharing Harry
Its a great place to look around, and each year they have the Autumn Show which is well worth seeing as well...a bonus really!
Just subscribed after watching the clergy cottage video. Fascinating history and building techniques, thanks!
Thank you for your lovely video.
I liked your passion, I wish to be part of your journey!
What a nice vid, thank you. I must revisit the Weald & Downland sometime.
Thanks for the treat Mr. Rogers!
that's a lovely house.got to go and see this house.
Very interesting Harry, I look forward to seeing you make some of the furniture in the same design. Regards
Looks very familiar. I think it was featured in the BBC TV series ''TUDOR FARM'''. and a occasional glimpse in 'REPAIR SHOP'', which is set in the same place. On that subject, there are many other ancient buildings on the 'WEALD and DOWNLAND Open MUSEUM.'' that were from all over the country, dismantled, and moved there, then reconstructed. Other's were moved there whole, amazing.
I have posted videos of some of the others...Tindalls cottage the Plumbers the farmhouse, blacksmiths etc.
Dripping with History.
Thanks very much for the look.
Loved this. Kind regards from Spain.
Why is this video so short? It's a large house and we are seeing a small portion of it. Are there hearths and fireplaces? That is the most fascinating part of these old homes, that, and the flooring, stairwells and doorways. Antique shops have lots of old jugs and pottery, we want to see the house!
Really enjoyed this video, Harry. Thanks for sharing. Have watched it several times. It is amazing to think that this house was built long before Columbus discovered America! I suppose the steep vaulted roof was to allow smoke to escape. Or perhaps to shed off snow? The roof appears to be shingled with cedar shakes?
Thanks I am pleased to hear that especially as I know technically its not the greatest filming! The roof tiles are in fact clay tiles...I expect this house could tell a lot of stories.
Thank you for the video
The hall looked the home used for Tudor Monastery farm...
thanks for not mentioning the roof tiles laid in a bed of lime mortar or plaster
In the exterior shot at the beginning, there appears to be a garderobe (indoor privy) protruding from the side of the solar (upstairs bedchamber). I didn't notice it on the interior shot. Is it actually a wardrobe?
No - you are right it is a garderobe...well spotted. I will be putting up another film on a different house where I will show the garderobe.
Harry Rogers So long as nobody`s using it, thanks ;)
shame you didnt show the loo that hangs off the back haha, when I was at the weald and downland museum there was a pile of fire ashes placed underneath it outside to look like feces. With what you were saying about the cattle I remember there being two bulls or cows kept in a pen on the other side (they weren't particularly jovial to see us and had a sombre look about them)
Better than many homes in the world today in shanty towns
Did you ever manage to have a go at recreating some of the furniture and pieces you admired?
Haha so many things to do in life...not yet!
How did they close the windows in the winter?
They had shutters but no window glass! a bit breezy!
Lovely Harry
This is my favourite house in the whole museum - a Yeoman's House I guess.
Very nice, I like the construction! Was this house used in the Tudor Monastery Farm series?
Yes it was! Well spotted.
This dude actually sounds like a polite medieval fellow
With your leather work have you ever thought about make leather water containers?
Ron - I have made leather tankards lined with brewers pitch.....and one of my friends is very good at making both tankards and water bottles etc ...so perhaps so some time!
