Packwood

Packwood is about 2 miles down the road from Baddesley. Although it is a tudor house, it was heavily victorianised and from 1925 Baron Ash restored it removing the "improvements". It is a mix of authenticity and pastiche. It has a particularly fine yew garden.










The installation show cases Ash's service in WWI. The barrage balloons contain writing's from his diary.














The scone which was pretty good a bit too stodgy but not bad.














I met up with Ragged Robin and her bear Timothy. Nice to meet you after so long!

    It was great to meet you too and Mr Quacks and friends and thanks for the mention.

    I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in the Cotswolds area and look forward to reading your posts and seeing the pictures.
