A Day Worth Recording

By Cheeseminer

Brideshead Visited

There's a 'walking festival' happening in Malvern at the moment.  A mix of hill walks and other guided walks around the area.  E booked us on a tour of the Madresfield Estate just to the north of Malvern this evening.

People may think our place is big but it rather pales into insignificance against this place.  4000 acres (yes that's four thousand) of which the garden is 65 acres.  We have one gigantic cedar in the garden; this place has an avenue of them.

Apparently this is the real 'Brideshead' of Evelyn Waugh's story.
