More about this scene
The estate was sold in 1924 to a private company, who opened it to the public. During the Second World War it was used as an officer training unit, but when peace came it was allowed to stand empty and neglected for about six years, leaving much of the building a ruin. Today Alton is one of the country's leading tourist attractions.
