The Bakewell Old House Museum II


I'm sharing this post as Ruby Tuesday and My world Tuesday entry. As I've promised, this is the continuation of my post last week about The Bakewell Old House Museum which we visited on our honeymoon in Derbyshire. Now you'll get to know the rest of the old house museum characters during the Tudor period in Derbyshire, England.

In 1777 Richard Arkwright, the founder of the factory system, built his third cotton mill at Bakewell and divided this house into 5 cottages for workers at the mill.
This is what the farmers used to wear on their wedding during Tudor period 
This two buckets the lady carries in her shoulder was used to collect milk to make cheese during Tudor period
This is the equipment used in washing clothes during Tudor period
And what my hunny is holding is the machine used to dry the clothes 
And this is the head mistress 
And this is the most popular history, the discovery of Bakewell pudding. We bought one and was so yummy!
There you go, that's a bit of history of English life during Tudor period. Hope you enjoy the tour! Back to Chatsworth House, what's inside it?That's my next entry all about. So please come and visit me again..Have a good day!

Our Anniversary Countdown

Daisypath - Personal pictureDaisypath Anniversary tickers Every night before I sleep, I never fail to thank God for the day I had. Whether it was a good or a bad day. And I know God was so pleased and happy about it, because HE decided to make my days perfect for the rest of my life....HE put my husband on it.
