Wonderful video, thank you! We watched the series recently and enjoyed it so much. We didn't realise that Shibden Hall was only 1 hours drive away from us so last week we spent a day there, it was awesome. I swear i could feel her presence. Definitely need another visit, its a photographers dream.

Not constantly moving the camera, and actually settling on the wonderful woodwork, furniture, etc. is a CONCEPT!

Man, they don't make houses like this anymore. It's over 600 years old and still standing. Things were built to last back then. Now it's all about how cheap and fast it can done and not about the craftsmanship. Amazing to see the home of one of the most amazing woman who lived in Europe. Its not the fact that she's gay that I care about, it's how educated and ahead of her time she was in every aspect of her life. She's an amazing role model

It is indeed a wonderful, robust building. Britain is full of them and as an immigrant, I love getting to know British history by seeing these incredible places. And yes, she was quite extraordinary!

I know it has been some time since this was posted but I am commenting to let you know that within the last year as the journals have been decoded it was discovered that Anne and Ann did indeed see and get to use and enjoy the library before they left on what would be Anne's final trip.

Thankyou, that was a great walk around. Great sound quality too. ( So so often the sound recordings on KZread videos are cluttered up with way too much intrusive white noise, which I just can't bare). I happened to manage a crash course of Anne Lister only yesterday whilst trying to find the TV show that I caught 10 minuets of one episode last year and didn't even know it's name!. , but that 10 minuets and the "breaking of the 3rd wall" and the shots in that magnificent house served to really prick my interest. All I knew was what the lead actress looked like. A couple of hours on Google asking the correct questions and Id found myself being put well in the picture. What a force of nature she was. Hats off to her. An incredible woman. As a wood carver, green woodworker ( sloyd) and avid spoon carver and all round heritage skills fan I found the workshop areas a wonder to glance upon. If needs be all those old tools could be easily serviced and put back to work in a jiffy. I spotted a shave horse, a scando invention, amongst the old gear. ( One of my favourite green woodworking tools/ items). I could move into there and get the place up n running and be doing demo's in no time. Sad and a little odd to be alive in a time where the tools have outlived the craftsmen and the need for the craft itself too!. Anyway,. Thankyou again for the first person walk around and the commentary and your lovely calmed tone. xx, Best regards, Yanosh.

Thank you for this video! I visited Ireland and England in 93 with my mother. One of the many things we enjoyed together was visiting the Stately Homes, Castles and Manor Homes in both countries. The best of which were the places that Yeats (in my top 5 poets and writers) was a constant guest & the amazing tower where he & his family lived. Mainly because they haven't been (or at that time) gussied up for tourism. In England The Bronte Parsonage was amazing and even though it's a draw card there's still so much that is exactly how it was when they lived there, the walk & the laneway to the moors where it was still possible to feel the beauty and isolation of the area is wonderful. But even though we were there during summer, the day turned on its bad side and kept the hordes away. We could enjoy the whole place without being bustled & shoved & long lines to look at everything. The other 2 most impressive and beautiful homes, even though we're talking Castle size were Chatsworth & Castle Howard (which believe it or not we found completely by accident and we both adored, being huge Brideshead fans) & that's what makes those 2 very special because they are homes & they felt like it. Not museums, but living breathing much loved & daily used homes!!! HUGE!!! But you could actually see yourself living in them. Also got to meet the current ( at that stage) Lord of Castle Howard just pottering through his daily routine, we were just wondering about in the gardens by ourselves after the tour. Chatsworth of course is Diana Mitford, The Duchess's fantastic legacy to us all as she loved it sooooo much. There were other incredible and even some less known places we found & it was the experience of a lifetime for me. I adore & I love my country Australia and the history of this place is an unbelievably rich and layered one dating millions of years & such a long line of human habitation that it stuns you at times. But even if it was years ago & only once, I'm glad to have been able to experience parts of Britain and Ireland in ways that brought the daily lives and routines into my life. It allowed me for the briefest of times to touch history in person. My mother has passed and I thank her every day for taking me with her and for our "Grand Tour" & the lovely, caring volunteers and caretakers of that history. Every single guide we had was tireless, full of knowledge, detail and devotion with endless patience to share with us their love for the places that have stolen their hearts. Your video is exactly like being there and the type of visit we would have done, thank you so much! Much gratitude from the Antipodes!!!💖💋🤗

Thank you for showing Anne Lister's house. My curiosity and my interest in historical environments makes me wonder what the house looked like when Lister took over. Do you know if there are pictures, floor plans or anything else that can give a hint about what it looked like? Unfortunately I can not feel any enthusiasm about the folk museum as I am more interested in how the house as a whole looked and worked. Imagine being able to walk into a fully functioning house from Lister's time, without additions from other times. In Sweden, there are a couple of such houses, such as Tjolöholm Castle. Thanks again for posting.

Living outside the sociatal norm (by being a homosexual) was a very important part of Anne Lister's life. It meant a life of hiding, of fear of persecution, but also of seeing things differently and thus being able to make different choices. It changed how she lived as it has changed how I have lived. That is why it's necessary.
