Story
I am no reader, it takes me weeks to get through a book. A story needs to connect, I need to feel that I can relate to it and it needs to be meaningful if I have any hope of getting to the end. Black Diamonds, a book about the history of Wentworth Woodhouse had me hooked after the first page. As I read I was reminded about the stories that my Grandad would tell and I was so proud that the house and the Fitzwilliams belonged to us Yorkshire folk.
For me, Wentworth Woodhouse represents pride, good old fashioned Yorkshire work ethic, and it reminds us of the importance of feeling a sense of belonging to a place.
This house is on our doorstep, let's keep it that way!
