Woolsthorpe Manor House Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Woolthorpe Manor is the former residence of the famous scientist Isaac Newton. Newton was born here in 1642. It is also here that Newton discovered the law of gravity that changed the world. The former residence sits on the east and west, with a gray-white stone building, which is quite tall. The roof is covered with black tiles, and the slope is quite steep, which shows that there is abundant rain here. The front two floors, with a total of seven windows, are distributed asymmetrically. The door is close to the middle window, and the decoration on the lintel is a pair of crossed skeletons, with two striking elongated S letters on the upper left and right sides. There are three-story windows on the north and south sides. A pair of chimneys tower over the roof. Visitors must climb the stone steps from the back to reach the second floor first. After a hundred years of wind and rain, the Newton's relics on display are now gone, replaced by Newton's contemporary furniture. A portrait of Newton hangs on the wall. There is an apple tree in the southeast corner of the grassland of the manor. It is said that Newton realized the law of universal gravitation under this tree. Under the apple tree stood a green bronze badge, which was a protection order issued by Queen Elizabeth.
