If visiting Hatfield House, then be careful in the Long Gallery.
Went there yesterday. I mistakenly (it wasn't protected by the usual signs or fishing line, etc.) began to open the door of a cabinet there, to have a butcher's at the insides, only to be surrounded in about 0.000001 seconds by the elderly staff, who were shouting "DON'T TOUCH! DON'T TOUCH!!". The cabinet, it seems, is a one-off, best of it's type, worth £100Ks, etc. and nobody has had a peek inside for years. Good job I didn't tell them that the door nearly fell off when I opened it.
