We just had an excellent morning at the Kilns with Malissa, current head resident, & a most knowledgable & gracious hostess. We discussed themes my daughter had just explored reading Lewis for a semester at Oxford.
Sad a housing developement now surrounds the once secluded house. But inside, as the video shows, one can feel that it was a homey house. I rather pictured Jack & company as hobbits, more fond of the daily comforts of kitchen, pipe, & book, than ambitous or socially conscious.
If only we could go and visit there! But then, Narnia itself was only the shadow of the real thing, wasn't it?
Thanks for this lovely film.
