Tatton Park

WW1 memorial at Tatton
 Back in April we went for a walk around the park at Tatton in Cheshire.

As you can see it was a glorious spring day.
 I could zoom in to take photos of the deer without getting too close!

Red Deer

Fallow deer

 The No.1 Parachute Training School was stationed at Tatton from 1940-1945







 When a new house was built in 1716 the Old hall was abandoned...it was all closed up behind a wall so we couldn't see much of it.



 By the time we got to the lake we decided we needed an Ice Lolly!!



Then a walk back through the woods towards the Hall.
 For another look at Alex Blakey's WW1 memorial.












and just a little instagram snap from my birthday meal with Hubby.
All such a long time ago....in April!

  2. Once again - lovely photos! I, too, love the green of spring. I am used to seeing WWII memorials in the US but I forget we were not the only country involved. Thanks for sharing, I love seeing it.

  5. Funnily enough we have been to the old Hall more than the new one! Including for Halloween (which was fun!).
    Where did all that pretty sunshine go?
