Description: | Today only the first floor room is open to the public. Originally all three-tower rooms would have been bedrooms for members of the immediate family or very important guest. The tower bedroom has been recreated as it might have looked in the early 16th Century and the replica furniture displayed represents the type of furniture in use at the time. Like the Solar utility items, would be present, the need for furniture to travel with the family outweighed the comfort and decoration. Status was shown with the fabric hangings and access to some privacy. | Subjects: | Country Estates | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
