First stop Malmesbury, an historic small town in Wiltshire. Out of interest where do people shop aroudn here? Most places are incredibly pricey as is the property.
As can be seen the Abbey church has been badly used over the years. It is still, however, a powerful building.
The porch is excellent with some wonderful old carvings.
On to Great Chalfield Manor, a very fine small 15th century moated manor house. Interesting guided tour.
The adjacent church becomes 580!
Pretty small garden.The National Trust also owns the nearby Courts Garden.
Unfortunately it had started raining (the last of the week!!)
Pretty garden though, blackbirds everywhere.
The House not open to the public.Well you couldn't sit so off to
Bradford on Avon.
Holy Trinity locked on my previous vist becomes 581!!
Saxon St Lawrence has already been ticked.
Got home to bright blue skies and it hadn't rained all day! Long evening stroll in the sun. I've seen more Marsh Tits than I have Warblers so far!!
