Worn down by time, I knew the feeling.

Thanks folks, and thanks Ollie for the UA. This is one of my favourites from the year so far, I think there's something emotive about worn stairs, they are shaped by human stories lived out.

Looks very modest... a back stair?

Quote:Looks very modest... a back stair?

There are I think two staircases, one on either side of the main hall, and they are both relatively modest. This surprised me, there's no grand showpiece flight of stairs. However the wrought ironwork that has survived elsewhere is rather elegant.

Steps steeped in history where so many feet have trod on their way to heaven.
Love the flaking ironwork and dips in the stairs, Moira.

What I find interesting is that the steps show quite a degree of wear and they look very basic stairs to be in such a grand house. Well depicted within the limited range of view available to you.

Despite the history, those stairs have seen some life. A fine composition and capture, Moira 👍
