Alnwick Castle is a Castle and Country House, in Alnwick, in the English County of Northumberland. It is the Seat of The 12th Duke of Northumberland, and was built following The Norman Conquest.

It has been renovated and remodelled a number of times. It is a Grade I Listed Building and, as of 2012, received over 800,000 visitors per year, when combined with the adjacent attraction of The Alnwick Garden.



The Chapel,
Mapledurham House, Oxfordshire.

Mapledurham House is an Elizabethan Stately Home located in the Civil Parish of Mapledurham in the English County of Oxfordshire. It is a Grade I Listed Building, first Listed on 
24 October 1951.

The Manor of Mapledurham was bought in 1490 by Richard Blount of Iver; however, the current house was started by Sir Michael Blount (1530-1610) and has remained in the Blount-Eyston Family to this day.

Building was started around 1585, at the time of the Spanish Armada, in the Classic Elizabethan E-shape. It includes a Late-18th-Century Chapel, built in The Strawberry Hill Gothic Style, for the Recusant Roman Catholic owners of the house.

Prior to The Catholic Emancipation, the owners would hide Priests in its Priest Holes, some of which were only discovered in the 21st-Century, and the Priests would secretly Celebrate Mass with a makeshift Altar hidden inside a Writing Desk. The Estate covers much of the Village, including Mapledurham Watermill, and part of the Church.
