Baddesley Clinton: a visit to the house and gardens in the winter 2021
When the snow first fell the skies were overcast and whilst there was a some beautiful snow scenes, I longed for a blue sky to provide some colour. The next day the sun shone and there were no clouds in the sky. I planned my walk to take me over fields to Widney Road allowing […]
The days before Christmas are a time of waiting and getting ready. It is a strange time this year and the weather is not helping the mood much either.

Biking from home to Coughton Court for a photographic visit. Each time I visit the National Trust property, I always spot something new to see. The house is full of interesting rooms and the views from the Tower are wonderful. There is also recounts of the history of the Gunpowder plot. These pictures give a […]
