    Stonehenge is a big seller. Which is crazy, because there is sooo much more out there for us to see, explore and learn about. This is just one of many examples. Oh and it has the plus point of being the oldest that we know of! The Original Stonehenge - You've Not Heard Of | 8:21 Paul Whitewick | 172K subscribers | 27,971 views | March 30, 2025

    A historic 17th century manor house that featured in author Thomas Hardy's seminal novel Tess of the d'Urbervilles has gone on the market for £850,000. Woolbridge Manor, in East Stoke, near Wool, Dorset, dates back to the early 17th century and was once owned by the Turberville family. It is from here that Hardy got the idea for the title of his 1891 book, with the red brick and stone property given the fictitious name of Wellbridge House. In the novel, newlyweds Tess Durbeyfield and Angel Clare spend their ill-fated honeymoon in the manor.
