Burton Agnes – the incredible gardens and statues

While the music is playing in the background you can wander through the great walled gardens with its array of flowers and vegetables.

There’s even a Green Man!!

Fortified Country Homes

I can’t remember the name of this. The country is littered with them – the fortified homes of the robber barons who took everything by force and were rewarded for their efforts by the chief robber.

The grounds were beautiful and the ‘castle’ picturesque; the history gruesome.
