Screen, Gates and Gatepiers - Monks Kirby




The gates are thought to be originally
from a Spanish Monastery.  Click HERE to read more. 


Taken yesterday at the Daffodil Sunday event
 in the grounds of Newnham Paddox, Monks Kirby.






I'll show you more around this wonderful parkland tomorrow.

PS  Happy Birthday, Abbie, for last Friday :).
