Summary
The House at Old Vine is the second in a trilogy of novels by Norah Lofts about the inhabitants of a Suffolk house from the late 14th century to the middle of the 20th.
Covering the turbulent years of 1496 to 1680, it follows six generations of the descendants of Martin Reed, who founded the "House" dynasty through his act of rebellion in The Town House, through persecution, war, and revolution, from the era of Christopher Columbus to the Restoration of Charles II.
Written with Lofts’ customary attention to historical detail, this novel follows intriguing characters who lived and died for what they believed in.

Tales untold
I’m loving listening to this trilogy that I read and enjoyed many years ago.
Since reading these books I always look at fabulous old houses and wonder what tales they could tell?

Unusual
After listening to five Norah Lofts audible books , I have to say that they do get repetitive. Pretty much the same story each time and with recurring historical detail. In every book a rare treat for a character has been gingerbread or raisins ! It's a good concept for a book and the narrative of each character keeps you listening , but for me there's something missing.
