7-story Mr Robinson apartment building at Robinson Avenue and Park Boulevard, Hillcrest. Developed by Jonathan Segal, FAIA and completed in 2015, it includes 36 apartments above first floor commercial space, including the Trust restaurant.
Thursday we went to the Clergy House in Alfriston, Sussex, and snapped 4 chairs for my National Trust chairs project.
The property was the first to be purchased by the National Trust in 1896. Up until then, the NT had only acquired land for use by one and all.
Had a lovely wander around Croome National Trust Park, near Worcester. It was -3C with freezing fog so couldn't see very far, oh well an excuse to go back!

Quote: "The greatness comes not when things go always good for you. But the greatness comes when you're really tested, when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when sadness comes."
Was in my sister's computer room today and turned around to see Frodo "wedged" under her chair, sound asleep in front of her heater.
He often nestles under her chair, but today he was actually under the leg of her chair. Just goes to show how much he trusts us.
Sweet kitty-dreams little boy. You are a source of endless joy to both my sister and me. And the occasional photo op doesn't hurt either.

Trust berthed in the old harbour. The boats would usually berth there after landing at the fishmarket. Again from early 1990s.
Chapel Bridge was built to provide easy access to
the mill for Robert Hyde Greg from Norcliffe Hall, his
home.
The 18th century neo-classical mansion with Robert Adam interiors set in historic parkland. Kedleston has been the home to the Curzon family since the 12th century and is still lived in by them today. Now a National Trust property.
A tiny section of Knole just to show the concentration of building work within it's itself .
Knole feels almost weighed down by its own history – six centuries of it. People are often impressed by all the absolutes of Knole: its enormous size, the number of rooms, its completeness. But those who live, work and visit here love its quiet dignity, its almost melancholy feel – the grandeur has passed but its old, glinting beauty remains.
What we see today is a remarkably preserved and complete early Jacobean remodelling of a medieval archiepiscopal palace. From an even older manor house, it was built and extended by the Archbishops of Canterbury after 1456. It then became a royal possession during the Tudor dynasty when Henry VIII hunted here and Elizabeth I visited.
From 1603, Thomas Sackville made it the aristocratic treasure house for the Sackville family, who were prominent and influential in court circles. Knole's showrooms were designed to impress visitors and to display the Sackville family’s wealth and status.
Over more than 400 years, his descendants rebuilt and then furnished Knole in two further bursts of activity. First, at the end of the 17th century, when the 6th Earl acquired Stuart furniture and textiles from royal palaces, and again at the end of the 18th century, with the 3rd Duke's art collection.
The Sackvilles gradually withdrew into the heart of the house, leaving many rooms unused and treasures covered. This helps to explain the relative lack of modernisation at Knole (central heating was never installed in the showrooms, for example) and the survival of its collections.
Knole has been welcoming visitors to see its splendours and curiosities for centuries. We know that visitors have followed the same route as you do today for at least the last 400 years.
There's a popular myth that Knole is a calendar house - with 365 rooms, 52 staircases, 12 entrances and 7 courtyards. While fascinating, the reality is that it all depends on how you count the rooms and Knole is such a large, rambling estate that it would be impossible to say for certain.
When the National Trust acquired the house in 1946, the majority of the rooms were leased back to the Sackville family, with the Trust retaining the more formal spaces. The 7th Baron Sackville and his family still live at Knole today in private apartments.
Now, visitors can experience so many different parts of Knole, from the grand showrooms to the cosy Gatehouse Tower, the tranquil Orangery to the sweeping parkland. Discover the vast estate and all it has to offer, home to a world-class collection of portraits and furniture, a state-of-the-art conservation studio and a wild deer herd. There really is something for everyone at Knole.

National Trust. Lyme. Disley, Stockport, Cheshire, northwest England. (Cheshire & Greater Manchester).
Had a wonderful time visiting here. It's about 60 miles, 1 hour 50 mins drive for me.
Lyme is a glorious house, surrounded by gardens, moorland and a deer park. Nestling on the edge of the Peak District, Lyme was once home to the Legh family and, in its heyday a great sporting estate. The 1,400 acre estate with its medieval herd of red deer offers fantastic walks and stunning views.
There is an elegant Rose Garden, Ravine Garden or the luxurious herbaceous borders next to the reflecting lake where a certain Mr Darcy met Miss Bennet in the BBC production of 'Pride and Prejudice'.
The site catalogues approximately three-quarters of a million National Trust objects with more being added daily.
The house is the largest in Cheshire, and is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I Listed Building. The estate was granted to Sir Thomas Danyers in 1346 and passed to the Leghs of Lyme by marriage in 1388.
The house dates from the latter part of the 16th century (1720s). The house is the largest in Cheshire, measuring overall 190 feet (58 m) by 130 feet (40 m) round a courtyard plan. It has a symmetrical 15-bay three-storey south front overlooking the the beautiful lake.
Architects were Giacomo Leoni and Lewis Wyatt incorporating the Elizabethan, Palladian, Baroque styles.
The house is surrounded by formal gardens of 6 hectares (15 acres) in a deer park of about 550 hectares (1,359 acres) which are listed at Grade II* in the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. In the gardens and deer park are a number of structures.
To the west of the house is the former mill pond. From the south side a lawn slopes down to another pond beyond which is a small ravine with a stone bridge.
