‘Hardwick Hall, more window than wall’ - Hardwick Hall, an Elizabethan country house in Derbyshire, was built for Elizabeth Talbot, Countess of Shrewsbury, also known as ‘Bess of Hardwick’’ - or E.S. as the four towers are crowned. Built in 1590-9 by Robert Smythson, it is one of the earliest English interpretations of Italian Renaissance architecture. It was also used to film the exterior shots of Malfoy Manor during Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. 🤩📜🐍 - (The parkland and gardens have now reopened but you’ll need to book in advance if you’re planning a visit.) • #History #Architecture #Elizabethan #1500s #16thCentury #HardwickHall #ItalianRenaissance #Smythson #NationalTrust #HarryPotter #MalfoyManor #Slytherin #VisitEngland #ElizabethanArchitecture #Derbyshire #BessOfHardwick (at National Trust Hardwick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCQ5NgipfNi/?igshid=1ioy0m6hpaq7z

Last week we went to Hardwick Hall probably the most grand National Trust place we have been to. Here is me with Queen Elisabeth :0) Hardwick hall was built by Bess of Hardwick after her fourth husband passed away. Bess was an extraordinarily independent woman , both minded and wealth wise. She went through four marriages and creating her own wealth, and eventually Hardwick Hall. I have always been attracted to stories of independent women and what they have created in their lifetime . . . . . . . #nationaltrust #bessofhardwick #independentwomen #bamboojumper #veganknitwear #englishproduction (at Hardwick Old Hall) https://www.instagram.com/p/B00S-51le__/?igshid=119xqlflpyje6
