Levens Hall

5th June 2014

Levens Hall is another one of those British aristocracy homes that are open to the public.  Well, parts are anyway.  Suzanne and I decided we wanted to see the gardens; they are supposed to be the oldest continuous topiary gardens in the UK.




 Lots of strange shapes to all the bushes and trees.


 This little flower garden is lined with tiny little English boxwoods.  That's an idea I may have try at home...














 It was all very pretty and we loved walking amongst the flowers and topiary.  We both had lots of fun!






































This flower was on the lily pond.  I'd never really seen a real lily pond before.

These are stones marking the graves of the landowners' dogs over the last hundred years.





Until next time...
