Thank you for putting this post up, it's been an interesting read. <br /><br />We didn't know until we visited the Witchcraft Museum in Boscastle that Mr Wade's collection of occult items was quietly removed from Snowshill. I think that's sad...it's like trying to whitewash someone for the sake of political correctness. Unfortunately the items were damaged in the flood in 2004; pity they hadn't been left where they were. I didn't see any evidence of the room they were kept in at Snowshill either. The rest of the collection at Snowshill is amazing. Thanks to your blog we're now going to look up the costume collection. <br /><br />Cheers!<br />Denise.Merry Cat Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367707224678539658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-77425208244259493722014-02-24T14:54:54.148-08:002014-02-24T14:54:54.148-08:00What treasures you must have seen!

I love the fabric of the costume - so beautiful. <br /><br />I'm sure Mr Wade would have loved your post and delicious Ansley Eggs.SavoringTime in the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416968440250548090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-28362809224851741542014-02-21T15:59:08.601-08:002014-02-21T15:59:08.601-08:00God bless eccentrics!

Each room, stuffed to the gills, still has an harmonious air, well designed and thought out, completely charming. It would take days to do Snowshill justice. (The fabrics displayed at Treasure Hunt are spectacular.)<br />Yummy eggs and I'm with Wade...I adore guava jam!Barbarahttp://www.moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-11994943664030017012014-02-17T13:28:58.060-08:002014-02-17T13:28:58.060-08:00Fabulous post, and a marvelous introduction to wha...Fabulous post, and a marvelous introduction to what must be one of England's greatest eccentrics. i long to visit the house, and see it in person.
