Heart of Midlothian

The Heart of Mid-Lothian, on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, is not a burial place but it is the spot where Alistair MacGregor of Glenstrae was hung with his kin after Glen Fruin. An old Highland custom is to spit on it.

Beautiful Places In England

Castles, country homes and creepy noises

Within the 15th-century defences of the Pomeroy family castle in Devon, England, looms the dramatic ruined shell of its successor, the great Elizabethan mansion of the Seymours. Begun in c.1560 and ambitiously enlarged from c.1600, their mansion was intended to become the most spectacular house in Devon. Although never completed, and abandoned by 1700, it is said to be home to numerous spectres.

Historic Preservation

‘The Round Barn’ by AngieDavies

This type of barn is so rare in the United States that The National Trust for Historic Preservation is protecting most of them. It is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the orchard country of Biglerville, Pennsylvania, an area which is famous for apples and other tree fruits. The round barn, also called a “barrel barn,” was built in 1914 by the Noah Sheely family. The circumference of the barn is 282’, and the diameter is 87’.

Henry’s second wife, Anne Boleyn, stayed at the Palace on the night after her coronation. Two of Henry VIII's children died there: Henry FitzRoy, 1st Duke of Richmond and Somerset and Mary I (Mary's heart and bowels are buried in the palace's Chapel Royal). In 1558, Mary Tudor signed the treaty surrendering Calais at the Palace.
