Poster, British Railways (Southern) (Our Heritage), Elizabethan lady on right hand side, Small picture of Knole House bottom left hand side, 1950s, Text - Country Houses, Many of Britain's famous stately homes are open to the public. Set in green parkland or surrounded by magnificent gardens, these great houses - some preserved by the National Trust - retain much of the beauty, peace and dignity of the old days. Within are halls and vast rooms sumptuously decorated, filled with fine furniture and paintings collected and treasured over the centuries. Knole House (Sevenoaks), Hampton Court Palace, Clandon Park (Guilford), Polesdon Lacey (Bookham), and Wilton House or Salisbury are just a few of the stately homes that welcome the visitor., (AD 7268/B25)
