Description: | Today you would not know you were standing in a late medieval room. The timber framing was bricked in at the beginning of the 1600s. During the Burgh's tenure the walls would have been hung with tapestries and wall hangings in a similar way to the Great Hall. The aim was to visible demonstrate the power and wealth of the Burgh family to all who visited the Hall. Today the walls are simple plastered giving the room a far more Victorian feel and portraits of the Hickman-Bacon family remind us of past owners of the manor. | Subjects: | Country Estates | Source: | Lincolnshire County Council | Identifier: | http://www.lincstothepast.com/Records/Re... | Go to resource |
