The New Murrey and Blue blog

Well, as a selling point and “a little bit of history” it would seem that the above property’s provenance isn’t quite certain. It’s reportedly part of the Stanley family’s estates. This in itself is a dubious recommendation to any Ricardian! I mean, as far as supporters of Richard III are concerned, the mere name Stanley is anathema. The family was traitorous to Richard, and Sir William Stanley betrayed him so abominably at Bosworth that Richard was killed most brutally. It was no mere death in battle, he was murdered by the deliberate actions of a turncoat.

Anyway, you can read more about the house in Roby, Merseyside, here and see some photographs of the refurbished interior. I can’t help wondering what a medieval Stanley cook would have made of the kitchen! Argh, the work of the Devil! 😁
