Views around the grounds and Walled Garden - 29/09/2011.

Warm sunny weather brought out the visitors at Wallington today. The house and grounds were bathed in bright sunshine. We were kept  busy clearing up the leaves that are starting to collect in the corners, borders and hedges of the Courtyard. The trees are starting to change into their autumnal colours. 


After lunch we did a spot of weeding, then moved onto edging the grass on East and West Lawns. The work continues to keep the grounds looking  their best. This spell of warm weather will encourage growth and enable visitors to enjoy what is on offer here at this historic National Trust site.


The following photographs were taken before I started work in the Courtyard:
