I think it was designed to impress!

Have you been to Horniman Museum in London?
They have a stunning Victorian glasshouse.
The ironwork is really impressive.

I was wondering that myself, there is ongoing work inside the house and around the grounds of this property.

So maybe they will one day, although I should imagine it would cost a fortune!!

Do they have any plans to rebuild it or is it a case of now it had gone it will stay gone?

It certainly would!

It would have been even more impressive had it still been there.

No the glass is no more unfortunately. They are just working of the records of the house and the foundations that you can see.

I don’t know how the National Trust came up with peaches, they must have done some research…
