We are attempting to list all places where
photographers can photograph Historic Houses within England. This is the start of a list
that will both grow over time and
hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information.
Due to the large number of houses throughout
England the list has been split into both county pages as well as
alphabetically. To see a full list of the counties available take a look at our
Historic Houses
Section.
You may also like to take a look at our
Garden
Section,
where you will find more links and some houses that may have been overlooked
here. There are other sections under
Heritage
that will also contain large historic properties,
such as Castles,
Abbey's
and Living
History.
Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked
this links to a Location page with more information on this
site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of
you would like to also produce location pages.
