Out and about

Now that spring is in the process of springing, I've been out and about quite a bit in the East of England, seeing for myself some of the wonderful things that are happening at our places. Here's a few images of what I've seen.

It's lambing time at Wimpole - here are some of the new arrivals

The Wimpole team have also been busy in the wider estate - the Stumpery and Stickery in the garden en route to the farm create wonderful bug hotels.


Oxburgh looks fabulous in the Spring sunshine - and a new Den Building area in the woods offers yet more outside activity for visitors.


Up on the North Norfolk coast, the after effects of the December tidal surge are still being addressed. This shed used to sit on the foundations that can be seen in the foreground - the power of the surge lifted it and moved it to its new position.
 

A stunning view from the rooftop of Melford Hall!


New visitor facilities in the car park at Ickworth will enhance the experience here once ready in a few weeks' time - excellent progress being made.
