Diana, Princess of Wales & Althorp House

The Round Oval

Diana, Princess of Wales,
was buried on the 6th September, 1997
 on the island in the center of the lake (below).


Below is a closer look at the memorial
that stands along side the lake.

Below is Althorp House, built in 1508.
Home to the Spencer family for five centuries.


 We had a wonderful afternoon visiting Althorp House.  
Like many, we wanted to see the memorial dedicated to
Diana, Princess of Wales.  Before walking to the lake
we enjoyed a tour of the house and gardens.


Althorp House is about l hour from Coventry in Northamptonshire.
