Short Talk 91 (Listen and Read)

Okay, students, are you ready to step back in time?

I will guide you and your teacher through Blystone Manor.

This is a very old manor, which dates back to the early 1800s.

Since its construction, it has been occupied by royalty, including kings, queens, and princesses.

While we no longer have the original furniture,

we are lucky to have nearly identical replicas built by the finest carpenter, Sir Adam Lockland.

Please look in your guides to have an idea of how the furniture was made,

and let me know if you have any questions.

After the tour, I urge you to visit the manor library,

which has been converted into a gift shop.
