Description

An older one - maybe i’ll get to do some travel next Spring though. Or get inspired locally.

This studded door is from Rufford Old Hall, a 1530s Tudor house (mostly rebuilt) in Lancashire, UK. The hand-forged iron studs were originally used to protect doors from axes or swords, althoough modern houses in the UK often have glass front doors these days.

William Shakespeare, an English author, probably visited Rufford Old Hall, it seems. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rufford_…
