Kirby Hall

One of Joseph's last days out here we set out to go to this old stately home. We didn't have our navigation system and got a little lost along the way. While we were trying to find Kirby Hall we ran into a monument to commemorate some Americans who aided in an important mission during a war, a different stately home called the Boughton House, and a monument for an old church.


We finally made it to Kirby Hall. It was a neat place part of which was reuins. Then a portion of the building still had a roof on it and was being restored to its original state. There was also a nice garden that was very well kept and manicured.


Emerson was asleep for most of the outing, but woke up in time for a picture or two and some ice cream. It was a fun day out. Joseph and I really enjoyed the portion that was old and falling apart. It had a lot of character and allowed your imagination to dream up what it might have looked like in its glory days.
