    I’m the manager off shipton court, and it’s just as beautiful inside to what it is on the outside, plus the gardens are amazing,

    Thank you so much for taking us on your wonderful walks! I am probably not going to get to England again, so I value these explorations more than I can say, Robin and Ross. Thank you from Northern California!!

    Dear Robin as a resident of nearby Milton under Wychwood I really appreciated your visit to our favourite place, the Wild Gardens. However I was surprised to see no shots of the canal and no visit to the church, the Green or the historic Crown pub. Worth a further visit perhaps?

    Thankyou for such a beautiful piece on Shipton-under-Wychwood. Shipton was my ancestors palatial home. My 2nd great grandfather was Sir John Read 9th Bart. Who migrated to Australia in the capacity of Governor of Darlinghurst Gaol Sydney. I hope to be able to visit Shipton-under-Wychwood in the not so distant future.

      I hear it's lovely but not any longer one house and residence. There are lots of houses around which might be more appropriate to visit. We'll look into it.

    Is this not where Jasper More - Larden Hall was (torn down) but what about the Blakeway Farm? Samuel More took the kids put them on Mayflower

    • @robinshuckburgh5561
      @robinshuckburgh5561 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Indeed so. I hope I didn't make a mistake but the house was built in around 1603.

  • @robthetraveler1099

    What is the name of this house and where exactly is it?

    • @robinshuckburgh5561
      @robinshuckburgh5561 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's called Shipton Court, in Shipton under Wychwood. It's visible from the road that runs from Burford to Chipping Norton passing straight through Shipton.

  • @marycahill546
    @marycahill546 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Apparently the house has been made into private apartments.

    • @Mark723
      @Mark723 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I wonder if this is a good thing; nonetheless, perhaps it was the only way to save the original building, which is still beautiful from the outside.

    • @robinshuckburgh5561
      @robinshuckburgh5561 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      So I understand. I think it's probably one of the least worst solutions to a modern world where this kind of house is vulnerable. At least several families get the opportunity to live in a beautiful house.
