It takes a little research, but I have PLENTY of books on the history of architecture, and enjoy hunting for good pictures too!<br /><br />i am pleased you have reinstated your hall, I love what you have done!

Surprised you've missed the snow, I have a friend in Durham who said it was snowing up there today. <br /><br />I enjoy putting these features together, it's an interest of mine and works well with my dolls house interests too. <br /><br />Speaking of which!!
