Robin Hood releasing an arrow, and in the background the song Bryan Adams “Everything I do, and do it for you” for years marked a new trail for film music and music videos. And although today it is not officially on the Internet, the house itself can be bought for 75,000. pounds (approx. PLN 376 thousand).


The 1.5-agent Silk Mill estate with characteristic ruins has just been put up for sale in Great Britain. It includes a forest, a fragment of the Holford River and the remains of the old Holford Silk Mills in Somerset – says “Luxury Property News” cited by “The Sun”.
In the scenery of the forest and ruins Bryan Adam appeared in a music video for a song “[Everything I Do] And do it for you. “It was the undisputed hit, which for several weeks occupied European charts. He promoted the film” Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves “, in which the main role of the one who robbed the rich tax collectors, and gave the poor what the sheriff brought them, Kevin Costner played.
Holford Silk Mills was founded by refugees, and specifically the Huguenots, who escaped from the persecution of Protestants from France. In the 18th century, poet William Wordsworth lived in the area, who immortalized a nearby waterfall in one of his poems entitled “Poems written in early spring”. The resulting mill, however, fell into ruin in 1860 after two fires.
The place turned out to be so special that Sir Paul Macartney from The BEatles bought the forest surrounding the estate, and then handed it over to the Liga organization against cruel sports to the nature reserve.
– This is a really magical place with a rich history – describes Ross Walls real estate agent. – The property is not suitable for someone who plans to build a house here. However, it is perfect for walks and escape from everyday life – he adds.
The music video, in turn, was almost erased from the Internet. Copyright for the film “Robin Hood: Prince of thieves” Morgan Creek Entertainment (Rights to Distribution was obtained by Warner Bros.) in October 2015 studio Revoluton Studios for $ 36.75 million sold both the rights to international distribution and copyright for films. And probably because of the copyright, the music video must “hide”, because as soon as it appears on popular YouTube or Facebook platforms, it is deleted.
