More about this scene

This is the most well known view of Towneley Hall. It shows the building casting a reflection in the pond at the front. To the right, partly hidden by trees, are the former servants' quarters. Some visitors can be seen by the central door. What is often not realised is that another wing once stood here. It contained the family chapel, which was later moved into the west wing. The only things which spoil this view are the municipal benches.

After 38 years of the RAF I retired with a very senior rank and a good pension. We now reside quietly in rural Lincolnshre. It is ...see more
