This is our guide; she is from the states and works as a volunteer for the CSLewis foundation... she is standing next to the Kitchen stove an Aga which is always on and always at 450 degrees!
Yesterday we went to the house of C.S.Lewis, also known as Jack... the house (the Kilns) was very cool and beautiful; the gardens were amazing. During the war he did have children from London come to live with him and thus his inspiration for the Chronicles of Narnia. The wardrobe was actually the attic where the children would escape to play and pretend... Here are a few pictures from the house (the house underwent much restoration all by volunteers; much of the furniture is period-appropriate, but was bought during the restoration in the 1990's thus not original to "Jack")
