I love discovering country-cottage style houses in the city! Would love to walk through the gate and call this place home - isn't it charming?

Hope you all have a fab Thursday ahead of you. This week is busy busy, but I'm looking forward to a fun weekend ahead, especially spoiling my mum on Mothering Sunday!

Chiswick House is a beautiful example of Palladian architecture in England. One of the most iconic buildings of Georgian Britain, Chiswick House was built in 1729 for Lord Burlington. He visited Italy and studied the architecture of Andrea Palladio, visiting Vincenza and Venice. He bought drawings by Palladio, and built Chiswick House, with the help of William Kent for the beautiful gardens. It is absolutely charming, house and grounds, and of reasonable size (made me think of Petit Trianon). Wings were later added but destroyed in the 1950ies. After the death of Lord Burlington and his daughter, the house was ceded to the 4th Duke of Devonshire. Lady Georgina Spencer, who married the 5th Duke of Devonshire, and became a political organizer, style icon, and author, used Chiswick House as a retreat. During the 19th century the house fell into decline and was rented out as an asylum, then sold in 1929 as a fire station (how odd! lucky firemen). The house is now maintained by English Heritage. #chiswickhouse #chiswickhouseandgardens #chiswick #palladio #palladian #lordburlington #dukeofdevonshire #cavendish #georgianbritain #georginacavendish #duchessofdevonshire #williamkent #architecturephotography #architecturelovers #architecture #palladianarchitecture #style #houseandgarden #sunday #historichomes #englishheritage #history #britishhistory #firestation #asylum #retreat

This gem of a bookshop @fostersbookshop is the oldest shop on Chiswick High Street dating from the 18th century. It is also conveniently located next to my hairdressers, which means I get the opportunity to pop in regularly. If you are in the area it is definitely worth stopping by to browse the fine collection of second hand and antiquarian books. There are always lovely editions of literary classics to tempt you too. I feel very passionately about supporting independent books shops. They bring so much to interest to our high streets and our towns and cities are sadder places without them.
