EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: Calgarth Hall Heraldry in the Old Kitchen Calgarth Hall, nestled on the serene banks of Lake Windermere in the heart of Cumbria, England, is a testament to the rich history and grandeur of the Elizabethan era. This old kitchen, adorned with intricate plasterwork, bears the armourial shields of Christopher Philipson and Elizabeth Wyvil, dating back to the 16th century. The kitchen, a domestic space that once bustled with activity, now stands as a silent witness to the lives of its former inhabitants. The room, bathed in the soft, natural light filtering through the windows, reveals a stunning display of heraldry on the plasterwork above the fireplace. The shields of Christopher Philipson and Elizabeth Wyvil, proudly displayed side by side, symbolize the union of two noble families. The shield of Christopher Philipson, featuring three golden lions passant guardant on a red background, represents the Philipson lineage. The Wyvil shield, on the other hand, showcases three silver pheasants' heads and necks erased, on a blue background, reflecting the Wyvil family's heritage. Calgarth Hall, with its old kitchen and beautiful heraldry, offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of the gentry during the Tudor and Elizabethan periods. The tranquil setting on the shores of Lake Windermere adds to the allure, making it a popular destination for history enthusiasts and visitors seeking to explore the architectural and cultural treasures of Cumbria, England. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the exquisite detail and preservation of the plasterwork and heraldry in the old kitchen of Calgarth Hall. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the past.
