Recalls for 1969 Wayne Wayne

The rear view of Wollaton Hall, on a snowy day in Nottingham.

Built in the 1580's for Sir Francis Willoughby, Wollaton Hall was designed by Robert Smythson, (who also built Hardwick Hall and Longleat), and is built from ancaster stone, from Lincolnshire. The Willoughbys had originally become rich though the ownership of coal mines, but as the coal began to run out, the family fortunes suffered. The hall fell into disuse in the late 19th century, and was bought from the by Nottingham Council and re-opened in 1925 as a museum. Recently, it featured as the new Wayne Manor in the final part of Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy, The Dark Night Rises.

Taken with a Nikon D40, fitted with a Nikkor AFS DX 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6G II lens, and processed in Picasa, GIMP, and Photoscape.
