      I can't find a shot that has any more houses showing in it but, with a bit of luck, one of these might be your friend's.

        looks like a lovely place to visit. Nice pictures, I think the one of the chicken is fantastic.
        Well done for organising the visit:spinning:.

        Delighted to hear you all had a wonderful time and some fantastic photos too! :dbgrtmb:

        I used to have one of those, shiney, they are Polish Crested Bantams

        Very friendly little birds too: my Po liked nothing more than walking around the garden ... on my shoulder! Clearly had identity issues :heehee:

                        Lovely pictures everyone. Rob and I enjoyed meeting you all and loved the garden. It's certainly inspired me and I have lots of (expensive) ideas to try in my own little patch of heaven.
                        I was impressed with the amount of colour in garden and the sheer size of some of the plants! The quirky and imaginative structures gave us all so much to see and admire.

                        the watering can topiary is fun.

                        birches.jpg
                        This little grove of birches reminded me of Anglesey Abbey.

                        This was a novel way to display the logpile!
