In the spirit of #WorldLaughterDay, we’re sharing this Facio-Graph toy from the Lydiard House Museum collection. These novelty items have a long history dating back to at least the 1600s but became more prominent in the 1800s and 1900s. #lydiardpark #lydiardhousemuseum

We are going to see the rooms just as they left them. Sometimes we will hear them, sometimes we will smell them and we will see the things they left behind. But in all of our chasing we will probably never quite manage to catch up with them....

According to local legend, a pauper called Betsy Smith died in Leek Wootton, Warwickshire, but her body was rolled over the parish boundary into Kenilworth so that they would have to pay for her burial. She was reportedly buried where she lay at the boundary stone.

Until 1868, all Anglican churches were legally required to display the Lord’s Prayer, the Creed, and the Ten Commandments on their east walls. In Tuxlith Chapel, West Sussex, these once mandatory fittings survive, along with an enormous 18th-century wine-glass stem pulpit.
We are going to see the rooms just as they left them. Sometimes we will hear them, sometimes we will smell them and we will see the things they left behind. But in all of our chasing we will probably never quite manage to catch up with them....
