The house, oast, hedges and nursery garden.
The house from the far end of the main lawn.
A 2000-year-old Roman well-head is the focal point at the end of the lawn.

Pat goes to almost every performance the opera group gives, even though she lives many miles from where they perform and doesn't drive. She's a radiographer, and before the powers-that-be saw fit to move her department from the small specialist neuro unit where it used to be and install it in a large general hospital, she worked close to Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Club. Her department used to x-ray and scan injuries to the likes of Pete Sampras.

Oh, Val, what a lovely day!! The pictures are just beautiful and I am so glad to hear you had a great time.
Wish I could toddle off to Edenbridge - it is breathtaking!
It's a real privilege to go there and mix with such lovely people in those gorgeous surroundings.
it's absolutely breathtaking.... how wonderful
I know I'm shallow, but I adored Pete Sampras... not the way I love vdo, but I wouldn't miss a match of his... did Pat ever meet him?
sorry, I've posted under this name... just playing around with my blog and forgot to change user.
I think one of her friends dealt with him. Not sure if she saw him at all - she's not impressed by celebs. Sampras was too hairy for my liking (says the woman whose husband had hair EVERYWHERE!)
How bizarre - my word verification just had a red cross instead of the letters to type. I had to type in rubbish to make it come up with an alternative that I COULD see!
