Claremont Landscape Garden, just outside Esher, Surrey, England, is one of the earliest surviving gardens of its kind of landscape design, the English Landscape Garden — still featuring its original 18th-century layout. The garden is Grade I listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.
Originally created for Claremont House, it represents the work of some of the best known landscape gardeners, such as Charles Bridgeman, Capability Brown, William Kent and Sir John Vanbrugh.
Work on the gardens began around 1715 and by 1727 they were described as "the noblest of any in Europe". Within the grounds, overlooking the lake, is an unusual turfed amphitheatre, which used to form the centrepiece of an annual event called the Claremont Fête champêtre. Hundreds of visitors descended on Claremont, most in costume (each year has a different theme) to enjoy four days of music, theatre and fireworks.
In 1949 the landscape garden was donated to the National Trust for stewardship and protection. Initially it was managed by Esher Urban District Council who could do little more than basic maintenance and grass-cutting. in 1974 the National Trust took back control of the site and a pioneering restoration programme was launched in 1975 following a significant donation by the Slater Foundation.
Couldn't resist calling in at one of my favorite spots on Sunday afternoon. Trouble is, each Chickadee photo is a little different - hence your being swamped!
Trust Issues
The things you feel you have to control are the things you don’t trust. You may feel secure by dominating situations and manipulating people but you can’t run from the true insecurity that comes with being alone. Everybody has trust issues but you’ll never learn how to trust if you don’t give anybody a chance to be trusted.... If being hurt is what you’re worried about then you have to get over it and realize you’re only hurting yourself. Our thoughts directly influence our actions so continuously thinking about hurt only creates pain. A closed mind and a cold heart do more damage than any liar ever can. So stop pushing people away that have proved that they deserve to be in your life. A conditional friendship is a condemned one. If you want to trust then pay attention to the small details because in the end they’ll be what made the big differences. Learn through pain, don’t run from it. If you never face the challenges you can never claim the victory. The key to being trusted is simple; just make sure your actions align with your words. Consistency earns trust, inconsistency earns doubt. You can either be trusted or you can be doubted; your choice.

A visit to the National Trust property of Benthall Hall in Shropshire.
The hall opens after 1pm. You can take photos inside on the ground floor only. Saw the 1st floor, but no photos allowed, and 2nd floor no access, private, as the Benthall family still live here.
Benthall Hall is a 16th-century English country house in Benthall in the town of Broseley, Shropshire, England, and a few miles from the historic Ironbridge Gorge. It retains much of its fine oak interior, and an elaborate 17th-century staircase. It is still occupied by the Benthall family, but has been owned by the National Trust since 1958, and is open to the public every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday (February – October).
The Hall was built around 1580, probably on the site of an earlier 12th-century medieval manor and manor house. During the Civil War it was garrisoned, and was a site of several skirmishes.
The garden is largely the product of two tenants. George Maw (1832–1912), local pottery manufacturer and crocus enthusiast developed the garden from around 1865 onwards. Subsequently, the Victorian era Romantic painter and sculptor Robert Bateman (1842–1922), who was the son of a famous horticulturalist, added the rockeries and terraces of the current garden.
The Restoration era church of St. Bartholomew, built 1667–68, stands close by the Hall. The Shropshire Way, a waymarked long-distance footpath, passes through the extensive woodland that lies to the north, between the estate and the River Severn.
In the film Enola Holmes, Benthall Hall was used for the exterior shots of the Holmes' family estate.

The Orangery.
Perseus & Medusa.
An early 19th century plaster copy of Antonio Canova’s famous marble statue. Canova was testing the limits of marble, with the left arm cantilevered over empty space while holding the heavy head of Medusa.
The Orangery, which now forms the south range of Green Court, was created in 1823 at the direction of Arabella Cope, widow of the 3rd Duke of Dorset, and her second husband, Lord Whitworth. It was converted from a much earlier space in an effort to bring an element of the Gothic Revival style, so popular at the beginning of the 19th century, to Knole.
The Orangery may have been planned as a gallery for the display of Classical sculptures as well as plants. An extensive collection of bas-reliefs, inscriptions and sculpture, both antique marble pieces and much later plaster casts, is fixed to the interior walls of the Orangery and may have been part of Cope and Whitworth’s original presentation of the building. They are mentioned in John Brady’s 1839 The Visitors Guide to Knole and may have been sourced from the Continent specifically for display here. Photographs reveal that by the mid-20th century the Orangery was used for the storage of other kinds of objects too. A black and white photo from 1945 shows the three-tiered Buzaglo stove, which dates to 1774 and previously stood in the Great Hall, had been moved to the Orangery. Before it was opened to the public in 2010, the Orangery was used for garden storage.
The National Trust use this accessible Iveco minibus FN68 EFR to operate a short free loop around the grounds of Cragside House near Rothbury in Northumberland. The vehicle was new on 2nd January 2019 and at it's last MOT in January 2024 had covered 43,000 miles. It is seen here on the frontage of Cragside House on 26th March 2024.
The only name I could possibly give this piece is "Trust Me". She looks so open and pleading, but there is also something sinister and creepy about her, too.
I did very few sketches of this centaur, and none of them included the background. The colors and feel were very spontaneous. All that I knew is that I wanted to convey a feeling of coolness, isolation, and desire. The ground looks like something from a dream, and she may be in the fog or in twilight. I didn't know that I was going to surround her with a purple bush and flowers, but once she was drawn, I knew she needed some folliage and wild, flowery, stark bushes seemed to fit the bill.
Would you trust her?

The Lemon Tree Trust Garden (designed by Tom Massey), one of the beautiful and elegant show gardens on display at the 2018 RHS Chelsea Flower Show which opened today in the 11-acre grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, London, United Kingdom.
The garden is inspired by the resiliency and determination of people in situations of forced migration and displacement. Their ability to make the most of harsh living conditions and landscapes, and their dedication to create gardens and beautify their limited personal space is profoundly inspirational.
