Well it has taken me a while to get round to it ( 20 years or so actually ) but today I visited Lyme Park for the first time ever . One of the closest National Trust properties to my home , the entrance to which I have driven past a hundred times or more on the way to somewhere else. It was a nice sunny day and I was surprised how much there was to see. The snow had largely disappeared but the grounds and gardens were more like February than April with only the earliest of Spring flowers in bloom. They prohibit photography inside unfortunately but there were still things to photograph outside like this the 'classic view'.
