The garden at Biddulph Grange, between Stoke-on-Trent and the Peak District, was created by James Bateman in the 19th century. It is now owned by the National Trust. For once I will let my photographs 'do the talking' ...
There is, of course, much more to see.
I'd forgotten how beautiful the garden was,you've certainly done it justice with your lovely photos .Makes me want to visit again. I will be away for two weeks from Saturday,so don't think I'm ignoring you Charlie.Ann
ReplyDeleteHave a good holiday Ann ~ I'm glad you liked the photos of Biddulph Grange ...
DeleteA lovely house and wonderful gardens!! This is a place I'd love to photograph myself. Some outstanding features. Love the hedging that also serves as flower-bed dividers. Interesting Egyptian theme in one place, the Japanese Garden was also very nice. Had to laugh at the 'Upside Down Trees'. Great photos, Charlie.
ReplyDeleteYes, the upside-down trees are different that's for sure. It's a great place to visit as is Little Moreton Hall ten miles or so away but for different reasons.
DeleteBeautiful gardens, great photos, I like the way they made that Egyptian temple shaping the trees to make believe pyramid, amazing skilled gardeners.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful garden that's for sure Diane.
DeleteThe photographs speak clearly, but I miss your words ... it must be incredibly beautiful to see in real life.
ReplyDeleteI didn't feel able to do justice to the photos this time, which is unusual for me. I don't think it will be a regular thing ...
DeleteWhat a beautiful place that is - and great photos too, Charlie.
ReplyDeleteThank you Alison ~ yes, it's a great place.
