5/5 #Dublin Castle

One of the grander rooms of #DublinCastle - and one of the most #Georgian - entrance barred by a rope so easy to get a crowd free snap with a #vertorama

The grand stairs by which you enter. I had to hand around for some time to get a shot without a lot of people.

1/5 #Dublin Castle

This week a set from a visit to Dublin Castle back in September on a short visit to #Ireland.

Largely 18th century it has a fascinating history as the centre of British power for centuries, but also as a crucial part of the independence process and subsequent history of the Irish state.

This is the entrance hall of Osterley House in W London. A snap where you had to stand in exactly the right spot.

5/5 Emo Court

I've concentrated on 'below stairs' but Emo Court has elegant rooms, a formal garden and extensive grounds. Here's looking out of a ground floor #window onto the terrace and #gardens.

4/5 Emo Court

This is a tunnel from the basement leading away from the house so that the servants wouldn't be seen when they entered or left the house.

County #Laois, Ireland.
