Rufford

A day trip in late June 2001, just because it was a nearby National Trust property that we hadn't been to. There's a tendency to go an see places like this when on holiday, but not to go and see the ones near to where you live, so we thought we'd rectify this . . .
Topiary Topiary (251Kb) Lots of time, effort and wear and tear on the clippers . . .
Topiary Topiary, close up (322Kb) Amazing what you can get a plant to do when you put your mind to it . . .
Topiary Squirrel Bush (297Kb) Speaking of which, here's one of a pair of shubbery squirrels.
Topiary Squirrels, with Hall (213Kb) And here's the pair of them, with the hall in the background. After all, we were here to see that, not boggle at the gardens.
The old Hall (219Kb) Another view of the hall through the impressive horticulture.
The New Wing (215Kb) 1662. The old wing is 15th Century. Some parts of the rest of the buildings are as new as the 1800's . . .
Old Tree (264Kb) A squirrels-eye view of the foliage. Taken just because it looked nice and green.
