Genuinely could have stayed in the armoury section for hours looking at the swords, shields, armour & battle paintings. It was a little Battle of Helm's Deep in parts which I loved. I do like a nice looking sword ⚔️

Spent a few hours here, including a free tour of its collection highlights. Absolutely fabulous & well worth it. And it’s free! Donations welcomed. #TheWallaceCollection

I should have added that I will be back at #TheWallaceCollection next month to do some #Sudbourne #OnePlaceStudy research in their library. When I finish there, I’m off to the #BritishMuseum for more #OnePlaceStudies research!

On Sunday I visited #TheWallaceCollection, former home of Sir Richard Wallace, who was for several years #OnePlaceLandowner of
#Sudbourne. I was struck by the opulence & grandeur of the house & its contents.

One exhibit in this lovely collection is my poem, 'The Wallace Collection'. Fittingly, it ends in blue: 'Bleu beau, bleu lapis, bleu celeste'... #museums #museumpoems #thewallacecollection
