Do people really live in places like this?!

Looks straight out of a fairytale

Somehow yes aha

I lived near a village called Downham, it's a beautiful little place very similar to this, there are no visible telephone poles or street lamps (other than a few) etc as they want to keep it as traditional as possible if that's the best way to put it

My parents live near Downham, used to go and feed the ducks there as a kid. Do you still have to apply to the Earl to live there?
