Britain's National Trust to open mansions, castles to gay weddings
The National Trust, Britain's biggest charity, is to open up its historic properties as the stage gay weddings. (Be sure to check out the pictures.) Five of its grandest locations are to be made available for blessing ceremonies for gay couples in a move that throws the weight of one of the country's most respected institutions behind the gay rights movement. The decision paves the way for the Trust to open the doors of more than 200 properties as venues for legal same-sex marriages. It remains to be seen how the Trust's conservative patrons will react.
