Packwood is a couple of miles down the road from Baddesley, it was heavily victorianised and from 1925 Baron Ash restored it removing the "improvements". It has a yew garden alas unfortunately some of yew trees are diseased.
Ash, his name was really Baron!, transformed a cow barn into the great hall. It could be argued Packwood is a pastiche but I do think he did it well.
cheese scone
curiously it hammered down on arrival and when I ate my scone and left.... but was dry and sunny in between!!
Super photos of Packwood Pete. It was lovely to meet you and Mr Quacks again and thank you for the mention. We were SO lucky with the weather :)
