I will see if I can pop over and have a look tomorrow.  I have had a beer in the pub in Apethorpe,  but not visited the Hall as far as I know.

English Heritage is apparently running guided tours this summer:

It's a bit too far for me to get to as a solo day-trip (it's a ~250-mile round-trip from Manchester), but if anyone in the Manchester area/en-route wants to share petrol costs then I'd be willing to give it a go. But it might be a bit easier for London-based people to get to? Or perhaps we could email them to ask if they could release some of their images under a free license?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi everyone,

Apethorpe Hall in Northamptonshire was in the news recently as it's going to be substantially renovated. At the moment, there are only three pictures of the hall on Commons.

I thought I'd let you all know about it in case it's of interest and someone has any good ideas.
