Another from Wallington Hall. This little guy was so relaxed that he/she wasn't worried by my movement, although I didn't try to get super close.
Set just south of the River Wansbeck adjoining the Wallington estate date, some of the trees in this thin belt of woodland date back to the 1740's.

Found at Wallington House, Gardens & Estate.
Wallington is a William and Mary house of c.1688 that was developed in 1738-46 by Daniel Garrett for Sir Walter Calverley Blackett, a local landowner and philanthropist.
A protégé of both Lord Burlington and Sir Thomas Robinson, Garrett reroofed the original house, refenestrated it, rebuilt part of it and remodelled the whole of the interior, creating, in collaboration with the stuccadore Pietro Lafrancini, a series of striking rococo set pieces.
Equally striking amidst this 18th-century work is a Ruskinian central living hall designed in 1853-4 by John Dobson of Newcastle for the botanist, geologist and advocate of temperance, Sir Walter Calverley Trevelyan. It has a coved ceiling and a balustrade and is painted with flowers and scenes from Northumbrian history by William Bell Scott, Lady Trevelyan and John Ruskin himself.
National Trust Properties
Wallington Hall, Nr. Cambo, Northumberland
Wallington Hall is a Grade 1 Listed building situated approx. 12 miles to the west of Morpeth, Northumberland. It was originally owned by the Fenwick family but after severe financial problems, the family was forced to sell many of their properties to the Blackett family.
The Hall house was rebuilt in 1688 and some years later it was transformed again in Palladian style. In 1777 it passed over to the Trevelyan family. The Hall is set in 100 acres of parkland. It possesses an ornamental lake, a walled garden, lawns and a wooded valley. Title passed to the National Trust in 1942.
It is a lovely property and well worth a visit.

The Clocktower and cafe
On Tuesday we visited the grounds of Wallington hall. We’re National Trust members, so had nothing to pay for either car parking or walking the beautiful grounds and walled garden.
We had made the visit initially in order to see the red squirrels that are reportedly in the woods there; unfortunately since the violent storms last November only one red squirrel has been seen. We were unlucky and didn’t see any. We did see a grey squirrel, and we saw a deer, and a heron too.

A recent wander around Wallington Hall in Northumberland (the grounds, rather than the hall itself) where Spring sunshine was definitely at a premium.
A bit sad to see the conservatory in the Walled Garden looking the worse for wear and now closed to the public.
It was built in the early 1900's and has now reached the point where it has structural issues.
Experts are now looking at what can be done and whether it can be saved.

Gregory Avenue Bridge that spans the Passaic River connecting the city of Passaic in Passaic County to the town of Wallington in Bergen County New Jersey is a 245 foot metal multiple-type-connected Pratt through truss bridge that was built in 1906 by the Owego Bridge Company of Owego New York. The machinery and control booth that allowed the entire span to swing to allow boat passage was removed in 1985 and the span was refreshed and rehabilitated subsequently in 1989. A foggy and rainy December afternoon, I saw the bridge and decided to take advantage of blue hour. #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america#lumixlx100ii @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @kehcamera @mpbcom @newjerseyisntboring @newjerseyisbeautiful @panasonic @lumix

The eerie fog and rain created a mystic mood that blue hour as I pulled off of New Jersery State Route 21 to snap off a few frames from several perspectives. #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #lumixlx100ii @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @kehcamera @mpbcom @newjerseyisntboring @newjerseyisbeautiful @panasonic @lumix @microfourthirdsgallery #microfourthirds #micro43 #micro43photography
Beautiful crocuses at Wallington Hall in Northumberland, England. The mild weather has brought out the crocuses much earlier than normal - especially compared to last year!

Fog evokes mystery and mysticism at times, many find fog rather disheartening, but I’ve always found play between fog and light amazing. Add reflections to that and in my opinion it always makes for interesting images, like this one of the Passaic River in New Jersey taken on the Wallington side of the river. The way the silhouettes of the trees reflect on the waters of the Passaic River is wonderful and reminds one of a time when the urban blight of the city on the other side of the river, Passaic wasn’t the principal factor that most associate this area with. Years of conservation after close to 100 years of toxic pollutants being poured unknowingly in the river by the many plants that lined the river during the Industrial Revolution are starting to slowly turn things around.

An awesome place to visit in the North of England. Apologies for the lack of activity, but lots going on at the moment so I'll be in and out over the next few weeks as I undertake a couple of projects.
