Now it's the school holidays and the kids will soon be coming back to
The Barn for a few days. One place we will be visiting again is
Dudmaston Hall, a 17th Century Country House which was acquired by the National Trust in 1978.
It is just off the A442 between Bridgnorth and Kiddereminster at Quatt (
here). We went there last summer but didn't get to visit the house as it is only open between 2-5pm on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Sunday. (The grounds are open from 12-6 on Mondays as well as the days he house is open). But it's worth visiting just for the gardens...
What's happened here? Has somebody shrunk the kids?
No it's just the giant Gunnara leaves. There is also a slope in the lawn which is excellent for doing roly-polys down...
I rather liked these steps, overgrown with chamomile...
Looking at my pictures of the place again, I'm starting to feel in holiday mood already... Rats I've another week and a bit to go.
