A LA RONDE |
LYDDINGTON BEDE HOUSE |
Most of the properties contained in this section have been owned by, or been the Birthplace of, famous authors, poets, painters, explorers, naturalists etc. In other instances there may be a unique architectural or decorative feature associated with the particular building, or even a famous historical incident connected with the house. The fascination and interests of the one-time occupants are as diverse as the structures themselves. Classical and contemporary art, literary masterpieces, entrepreneurial engineering, religious symbolism, and the foundations of modern science are all secreted in this miscellany. As a refreshing foil to some of the heavier subject matter, there are also many tales of intrigue, notoriety, romance and genius intertwined in the histories of the properties and the families. |
