The intricately carved limewood clock case surround is from a lime tree planted in Burghley Park by Queen Elizabeth I; the tree fell during the 1886 great storm. Queen Victoria dined in the Great Hall in 1844. Walls are hung with tapestries, portraits of the Cecil family, and other 'notables' – including Anthony Browne, 1st Viscount Montague and his wife. The hall, 68 feet in length and 30 feet wide, is over 60 feet in height – with a remarkable double hammer-beam roof. Cabinets contain rare books and Japanese porcelain. The hall is still used for lectures, social events & presentations. The corridor visible through the door is a display area for some of the many athletics trophies / medals, awarded to Lord Burghley, 6th Marquess of Exeter – the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics 400m hurdles champion.

Leica SL 601 / Leica PC Super Angulon R 28/2.8 shift lens/ Novoflex R to L adapter A view of part of The Sheep Market, Stamford photographed at sunset 30 January 2025. This particular view excludes the distracting telegraph wires. Harrison and Dunn is one of the few remaining independent ironmongery / hardware stores. All Saints Church tower and steeple is illuminated by the low setting Sun. The 18th C. Sheep Market, previously on Barn Hill, relocated to its 'new site' in 1782, and was in use for sheep sales until the 1930s. The Golden Fleece Inn is late 18th C. and abuts the rear of the 17th C. Millstone Inn; the latter's front entrance is in All Saints Street adjacent to Red Lion Square. The tall, pointed, and lance-like spire on the RHS, is the Eleanor Cross Monument – inspired by the story of the Cortege of Queen Eleanor passing through Stamford in 1290. Adorned with fragmented and whole carved flowers, the Ketton stone and bronze spire was erected in 2009 and celebrates love, longing and remembrance – the base stone rising into the bronze tip. There is much more to document about the monument; it's deserving of a separate photo essay and description.
