Nine rustic cottages around a green
A delightful hamlet of nine picturesque cottages laid out around an open green. The hamlet, which is four miles north of the city centre, was built in 1811 to accommodate retired staff from Blaise Castle estate in Henbury.
Designed by John Nash each cottage is unique, this style was later widely copied. The hamlet was one of the first examples of a planned community and there is a stone sundial and water pump on the green which commemorates its construction. The cottages are lived in and therefore entry to the public is to the village green only.

The banner outside the Wellcome Trust says it's for the 'incurably curious'. Their permanent gallery and entire visitor centre is a testament to this. Wellcome Trust have managed to execute great, engaging and interactive environments.
Here is a display of postcards drawn by visitors. What is great about this is that it's apparently not restricted - I can draw my card and immediately put it on display. The wall is massive, and is always full of lively, relevant contributions.

Basildon Park
Sitting elegantly in 162 hectares (400 acres) of historic parkland and gardens, this 18th-century house was purchased by Lord and Lady Iliffe in the 1950s, when it was de-requisitioned after the Second World War. With extraordinary vision, the Iliffes brought Basildon Park back to life, acquiring a collection of fine furnishings and carefully selected Old Masters.
The Trinity Trust Foundation supports the City of Dallas by raising private funds for amenities for the Trinity River Corridor Project. Donations from the private sector add features such as the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge and Margaret McDermott Bridge, Continental Avenue Bridge, Trinity Lakes, Trinity Forest Spine Trail, and more. A few weeks ago, 60 Rat Pack and River Rats members headed out to the Texas Horse Park for The Trinity Trust’s Texas-style “Round Up” fundraiser.
The Rat Pack offers unique opportunities to experience and participate in the creation of the future city along the banks of the Trinity River. Celebrate The Trinity project with social gatherings, events, and lectures at The Trinity Center featuring master designers, urban planners, and civic leaders. Members may also participate in canoe trips and guided hikes through the Great Trinity Forest. The River Rats is comprised of active enthusiasts dedicated to supporting The Trinity project. With a focus on education and increasing public awareness about the project, the goal is to build support for The Trinity project among Dallas’ young leaders in an effort to enhance life for the Dallas community through environmental, recreational, and economical efforts. Those interested can join online at thetrinitytrust.org/.

I've been looking for an opportunity to try out the high iso performance of the my new Fuji X-S1, so finding the National Trust had relaxed their policy on photography (still no flash, natural light only) inside their houses gave me an opportunity. Not bad I would say, but all comments are welcome.

Basildon Park, National Trust, Lower Basildon, Berkshire. Basildon Park was built in 1776-83 by John Carr of York for Francis Sykes who made a fortune in service with the East India Company. This Palladian house consists of a 3-storey central block flanked by 2-storey pavilions. The interiors were completed by J.B. Papworth for the Liberal MP James Morrison, who bought Basildon in 1838. The house stood empty and neglected throughout the first half of the 20th century until it was bought and restored by Lord and Lady Iliffe.
