Light through the window

Kitchen @ Blakesley Hall Museum
The hall is a timber-framed farmhouse built in 1590 (when Yardley was in Worcestershire) by Richard Smalbroke, a man of local importance to Yardley. His family farmed at the hall and had other buildings in the surrounding area which were lost over time.

The hall became a museum in 1935 after centuries of use as a private home and its parlour was renovated. Its purpose was to display the history of the local medieval manors which comprise Birmingham. The Hall was damaged by a bomb in November 1941 causing extensive damage and the museum did not open again until 1957. After research in the 1970s the Hall was restored to an authentic period appearance.

It was last renovated in 2002

Great shot. Love the vignette effect you applied. Curious about the shadow in the center, lower foreground. Seems like it shouldn't be there and is a little distracting.
