Pleased feel free to share.

I'm very pleased to see my photos of beautiful Trentham Gardens, Staffordshire, featured in the latest edition of The English Garden magazine. The gardens were designed by Tom Stuart-Smith and Piet Oudolf and are stunning throughout the year.

Important Info from Quarry Bank....🍃

We have big plans for the mill this winter. We're going to be installing a passenger lift, and finding new ways to tell the mill's story. The works for the lift mean that the mill will be closing from 20 November 2017, with a full re-opening in summer 2018. The rest of Quarry Bank is staying open throughout.
Find out all about it here: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/quarry-bank/features/transforming-the-mill

Huge thanks to Heritage Lottery Fund for helping us to make this transformation possible.
