ROLLING STONES - WYMAN TURNS HIS HOME INTO FASCINATING BOOK

WYMAN TURNS HIS HOME INTO FASCINATING BOOK

Former ROLLING STONES star BILL WYMAN is working on a new book about the history of his Suffolk, England manor house - but he fears it'll never hit bookstores. The 70-year-old rocker, who has made a name for himself as a collector, photographer and archaeologist, has a handful of varied books to his name - and now he wants to use the country home he's owned since 1968 as a subject for a new tome. He explains, "I've been working on a book on the history of my house in Suffolk, which is from 1480. It's a manor house with a moat. "There was a house on the site in the 1100s (and) the church across the way is in the Doomsday Book. I'm the lord of the manor. "I've excavated there and I found tons of things. I found underground walls from the 1300s and I had archaeologists come in and date them. I also found a Roman site in the village and there were Roman artifacts there. "I've found Saxon stuff too. It's a fascinating place. "But that book's never gonna sell. I fear this will be a labour of love that I'll pass on to my children."
