Woolmers Estate: BED OF ROSES
http://woolmers.blogspot.com/2010/12/bed-of-roses.html
Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Beds and Beds of Roses! I took a guided tour of the main house at Woolmers near Longford today and wondered, as I often do when I'm there, what those Archer ladies of long ago would make of things now? Clearly they would easily recognise the interior of the house because almost nothing there has changed - it's still just as it was - a microcosm of a bygone age. Fast-forwarding to the present day, and I notice that visitors were everywhere, and a large bus was bringing even mo...

On The Convict Trail: January 2015
http://ontheconvicttrail.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
On The Convict Trail. Wednesday, 28 January 2015. Hardcastle was built for a handsome, bearded clergyman, the Reverend Isaac Hardcastle Palfreyman, pastor of the Free Methodist Church in Murray Street. He bought the land in 1887 from an unlikely quartet of people-a gentleman, a painter and glazier, a farmer and a widow. Two lots of a sub-division, Numbers 4 and 5, were needed and the cost was £282: 10:0. Hardcastle’s restoration is certainly worth every effort the present owners have put into it. The Her...
