    Three generations of Hopwoods tried to see the family home this week. Oddly, when we reached out via email, Facebook and phone, we were not offered to stop by - even to volunteer during hours which are publicly posted for Tuesday and Thursday (which I found about later and we could have easily supported). Instead, we received a cold email telling us to have fun on the rest of our trip and to sign up for a future events list. Based on this, my mother (born Mary Hopwood), who is very elderly and can barely walk will - for the duration of her lifetime - have only peeked through a 2.5 inch slit of 15 foot fence at where her father came from. I am thrilled that the family estate is being restored. But I am embarrassed and disgusted if this is how one is a “friend” to Hopwood hall. PS - I was asked to revise my review. However, I find no reason to change it substantially based on my experiences and responses here and elsewhere. From a Hopwood, who actually has the last name and priorities in the right place, I did not see evidence that this project is about Hopwood interests or our heritage… the current scope did not allow for real Hopwoods even to provide free labor. I also recommend that there be heavy scrutiny on the intent and beneficiaries of the restoration. Nonetheless, I will helpfully add that I suspect someone - maybe a Hopwood - looked through about a dozen visibly decaying bags of rubbish by the embankment and found two beautiful, large, mostly intact panes of the original (leaded?) glass. They are about 1/3” thick and approx 24”x 36” in width on the side of the hall between the two bridges. Maybe they were volunteering on not a Tuesday or Thursday 😃
