Step into the transformed quarters of the Earls of Plymouth, as they've been revived in the heart of Worcestershire, England, now a trendy wine bar and eatery.

Situated amongst the scenic landscapes of Worcestershire, England lies the Barnt Green House, classified as a Grade II-listed structure. Records state that the house was built in 1651 and it served as a residence for the local nobles, the Earls of Plymouth.

Queen Victoria is reputed to have spent the night there, though the specific details of her visit are not recorded. Other Windsor, the 6th Earl of Plymouth, bought the house from the Yates family in 1811.

Today, this historic relic has found new life as the Barnt Green Inn. Having lost almost all of its grounds, the building now operates as a wine bar and gastropub.
