Never knew this was here and I used to drive through Tisbury fairly often! Wish I'd known!
Nice shot again!
Best wishes, Andy

Two years ago when I found this place, it was just part of a farm, so couldn't walk around it. What was the old farm yard is now the regional offices of the National Trust. Thanks for the Y*'s
Best wishes, Rosa.

Like Andy, I never knew of this place, despite growing up living in Motcombe and then Shaftesbury ~ Well caught Rosa ~ Best wishes ~ Nick

Well, me too Nick! I often cycled to Tisbury from Gillingham, through Motcombe but only found this place a couple of years ago! If you are ever that way again it's up through the town and turn right at an antique shop. Some beautiful old cottages down that road as well.
Best wishes, Rosa.
