"There are certain gardens that just have a magical, dream-like quality about them. They transport you to a place, a moment in time, that lingers in your memory more as a feeling than an image. This is one such garden." the3growbags.com/garden-revie...

The artist #ElisabethVellacott was a good friend of #LucyMBoston? She helped Lucy with the wartime concerts for the RAF, and they block-printed curtains for the Manor windows together. Later, Lucy's son Peter designed a house for Elisabeth nearby (painting by E Vellacott) www.greenknowe.co.uk

As well as producing our show, I'm also an audio post production professional and I'm looking to take on some podcast editing and post production clients. Any genre is fine but I do enjoy a good paranormal show or ttrpg actual play. Happy to discuss working to any budget, just drop me a line.

Behind its Georgian facade, the Manor at Hemingford Grey dates from c. 1130, making it one of the oldest continually inhabited houses in Britain. Restored after WWII by author Lucy M Boston, it has beautiful gardens and is open to visitors in the summer. @greenknowemanor.bsky.social #MedievalMonday

I am fulfilling a long held ambition by visiting the Manor at Hemingford Grey tomorrow. It provided inspiration for the Greenknowe books of Lucy M Boston, which I loved as a child, and still love today. I can't wait!
