Happy Friday!! Famous Houses # 9 We came across this house while exploring streets of Windsor. This is Windsor’s Market Cross House. And it is apparently the most photograph buildings in Windsor (well besides Windsor Castle). I didn’t know anything about it until I started researching about the house after the visit and it didn’t disappoint having quite a history behind it! The Crooked House of Windsor was built in 1592 near the market square and was initially a butcher’s shop since this area used to be shambles. In 1687 the house was demolished in order to make space for the Guildhall next door. But there was a dispute over the lot and the court ordered the council to rebuild the house. Well according to some sources the house was re-built in a hurry and without care using unseasoned wood which caused the house to buckle but it stood its ground nether the less becoming its signature! It was always a commercial building hosting many different businesses including tea house, architecture agency, brewery, flower shop, jewellery shop... Allegedly there’s a secret passageway (no blocked) leading from the house right into the castle. The purpose of the tunnel was to deliver produce from the market to the castle’s kitchen. But it also is beloved that the passageway was used by King Charles II for secret meetings with his mistress Nell Gwyn!!! I have no idea who she is but How scandalous! Some say it’s all just a rumour. πŸ˜… @windsor ********************************* Follow @4curiousadventurers β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”- #4curiousadventurers #windsor #suitcasetribe #ig_shotz #igtravel #earthfocus #artofvisuals #awesome_earthpix #worldshotz #special_shotz #explore_destinations #visitbritain #uk_destinations #bestofbritain #living_europe #travel_drops #traveldestinations #loves_united_kingdome #insta_travel #lonelyplanet #mylpguide (at Windsor, Berkshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4C_wxglr4z/?igshid=pv1vxlvmlikr

Kirby Muxloe Castle, also known historically as Kirby Castle, is a ruined, fortified manor house in Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire, England. William, Lord Hastings, began work on the castle in 1480, founding it on the site of a pre-existing manor house. William was a favourite of King Edward IV and had prospered considerably during the Wars of the Roses. Work continued quickly until 1483, when William was executed during Richard, Duke of Gloucester's, seizure of the throne.
