When one is surrounded by dazzling medieval architecture, it is easy to almost miss the real sta[i]rs of the show. Early 17th century oak staircase put in by Sir Robert Sidney. Amazing workmanship. @PenshurstPlace

Just back from a fab couple of days at Penshurst Place Volksweald VW event. Loads of love for my 1963 ratty panel van, and NO, I will not paint her or have any interior fitted! Gertie our 1972 blue Bay Window bus looking good in the sunshine. #VanLife #PenshurstPlace #Volkswagen

Beautiful Penshurst Place, Kent. Home of Sidney family since 1552. Originally built 14thC, much of medieval house survives, including stunning Baron’s Hall. From 15thC belonged to Dukes of Buckingham, with Henry VIII confiscating house in 1521 when 3rd duke executed

Visiting the Baron’s Hall in Penshurst Place, which is part of the original house and was completed in 1341. This would have been the hub of household life in the medieval and early modern periods #penshurstplace #penshurst #medieval #medievalgreathall #greathall

Don't suppose anyone attended a charity celeb cricket match @PenshurstPlace in the 90s? Radio 1 were there. I won a cricket bat. Remember Bill Wyman Errol Brown, Charles Dance, Richard O Sullivan, Steve Tompkinson signing the bat.. #cricket #tunbridgewells @PenshurstParkCC
