English Heritage is apparently running guided tours this summer:
http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/daysout/properties/apethorpe-palace/
<http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/daysout/properties/apethorpe-palace/>
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
<http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/architecture/11333447/French-baron-saves-crumbling-Jacobean-manor-from-ruin.html>
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.
