kayo Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 (edited) Ah well, why didn`t you say do. Where they filmed scenes of the song remains... and which they bought in 73..... Hammerwood Park therefore, Easst Grinstead East Sussex TIRVIA>>Hi - I'm David Pinnegar at Hammerwood Park which Led Zep owned from 1973 to >>1982.

I think the idea is that She's sure she is buying her way - we read it that she's sure that she is buying her way with money. But words have two meanings. With a word she can get what she came for. We're misgiven about her. She's bought her way not with money but with her words, her prayers. I wonder . . . ? All that turns to gold at the end, I believe isn't metallic gold or money, it's gold light and all that's wonderful . . . ? Perhaps I'm wrong. The reason why I think they were inspired was that there is a bustle in the hedgerow and the piper is calling him to join him "when all are one and one is all". There's still time for us to change the path we're on. The answer is in the wispering wind. So all must be "one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll" I hope I'll be a rock in the coming storms. Perhaps I'm mad but that's what people thought when my family and I took on the unrestorable Hammerwood Park. Although Led Zep apparently did nothing for Hammerwood Park in their ownership but allowed it to go derelict, history may regard the group as having rescued the house from Mammon: the property developers who had turned it into 11 flats. In its dereliction the house found resurrection when in 1982 we took it on to restore it and bring it to life. Little did Led Zep know when they bought the house in 1973 that a decorator working for the developers had hidden an inscription beneath lining paper on the stairway hall ceiling: "This house is full of rot. God help you. 1968". What the earth is facing now is what Hammerwood faced when Led Zep took it on. In order for it to come to life in a resurrection it had to be rescued from Mammon. It went derelict in the process. It was a tragedy. But it didn't need t Edited September 21, 2006 by kayo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeranam Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 (edited) A member of Led Zep bought a house here in 1971, and the grounds can be seen in 'the song remains the same'. I went to a very famous stretch of water near this city once and saw some very strage things - maybe due to the fungii I had been eating.
