Blenheim
Palace |
|
Although built in 1714,
Blenheim Palace is probably most famous for
being the birth place of Sir Winston Churchill, born on the
30th November 1874 at 01.30am.
Even though this was not his official home he spent many happy
years here and in 1908 standing by the lake he proposed to his
wife, Miss Clementine Hozier. Part of the Palace is dedicated
to a Churchill exhibition, including his birth room, pictures
and statues. |
 |
|
 |
Churchill and his wife are buried just outside Blenheim Palace
in a nearby churchyard at Bladon, beside his parents Lord and Lady Randolph Churchill.
Blenheim Palace
consists of many exciting rooms, like the Great Hall, Sallon
(which is a grand dining room with wonderful murals and
paintings by Louis Laguerre). There are three glamorous state
rooms, with an extremely long library.
During your visit to Blenheim Palace, take the time to visit
the gardens surrounding Blenheim Palace, which consist of a
tranquil Water Terrace along with the peaceful Italian Garden
and stunning Rose Garden. |

Warwick Castle Tour |
|
Warwick
Castle was founded in 1068 and was rebuilt and updated a
number of times. Today, Warwick Castle combines
ruins, largely of the fourteenth century with one of the
finest great houses in England.
Warwick Castle has two small
projecting towers, which date to the late fifteenth
century and are said to have been built as artillery platforms.
Late in the fourteenth century, additional
buildings such as the great hall and residential blocks
had been added to Warwick Castle in the bailey.

On the west front
side of Warwick Castle a high
and stout defensive curtain wall leading from a gatehouse to a very tall
polygonal tower, known as Guy's Tower, which is 39.4 metres (128 ft)
tall.
The gatehouse has a pair of
towers above the doorway passage. Warwick Castle is completed by curtain
walling and further, much smaller towers.
