For anyone booking an event at Pynes House, I have decided to offer a competition. I will offer a bottle of wine to any bride or groom who can find 30 or more faces around the house and gardens at Pynes House (not actual human faces though, that would be too easy!).
We’ve lived here long enough to think we know most things about the house, but just this week I found a new face that has been staring down at me for years. It served as a lovely reminder that this house always has another secret to discover.
I have found 42 so far – here’s my current favourite, tucked in the corner, high up on the historic ceiling over the main staircase.
