Himley Hall
Himley Hall, situated between Kingswinford and Wombourne.

In 1934 the Duke and Duchess of Kent honeymooned at Himley and The Prince of Wales (The Duke of Windsor, later Edward VIII) spent his last weekend there before his abdication.

The grounds were designed by Capability Brown and include a beautiful lake.
