remember the summer?

 At the end of August we visited a local nursery for some garden inspiration. 

Dove Cottage Nursery near Shibden in Halifax has a lovely little garden next to it that you can visit for a couple of pounds to see how they use the plants they sell.



 Back home my favourite rose was in full bloom






We went for a lovely walk from Hardcastle Crags along the route of an ancient pack-horse route.

























We also popped down to Shropshire to visit my lovely mother-in-law. We always start with a visit to our favourite deli in Church Stretton.
More garden inspiration at Wildgoose Nursery near Millichope Park.


















We also went to Acton Scot Victorian Farm.



















Bad hair day!


 a spot of lunch



And we managed a day in York













 We visited the Treasurers House












And the National Railway Museum












We also attended the Gold Cup at Oulton Park




























So I do believe this will be the last post of August (well it is November!) I am trying hard to catch up!
 We'll finish with a walk in Saddleworth.

  1. You took us to gardens and I loved that, but then you took us to the Victorian Farm and that was better, then it was to the railway museum and I love old trains to much I thought that was the best, until we ended up in the 1940's! What a wonderful August you had, I wish we could have joined you.
