Summary
Pathe synopsis: Fourteenth-century Blenkinsopp Castle in Northumberland is the fairytale home of the Simpson family, who bought it for the price in most towns of a comparatively flimsy terraced house - just under £2,000! And for that price the castle has in its twenty acres of grounds, tennis courts and a swimming pool.
