I'm guessing the view there is one-directional only Rosa! I like the way the bench is framed in the stone archway and the vibrant green foliage surrounding it is lovely. I like the nice carpet of brown leaves under the bench too.

HBM..............and I hope you have a good week :-)

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
Yes you are right Keith. I expect you guessed the view is of the lake! Thank you for your kind comments.
Happy Monday and good rest of the week.

Hey Rosa, WHAT A GREAT HBM shot! Love the bench sitting there in that arch-way... here's a different take on the shot:: it could be a LARGE green monster with teeth ready to devour the little bench :)) do you see that ?? hahah. just had to mention what I could see when taking a good look at this capture. :)) enjoy your new week. Best wishes, Sarah

What a delightful find Rosa!! Stourhead is wonderful with all it's features but this is so nice because it looks so natural. I love all the ivy and the mosses around it. It is just like a little Hobbit house!!

HBM and a good week ahead to you. It is very overcast and dark here today.

Hi Rosa
I like this picture very much!
It is a very exciting idea..
My first thought was that when you stand up you bang your head..
And the next one was it reminded my of the old Anderson shelters which we used to have in our back gardens.. A real adventure!
Fantastic colours too
Best Wishes, HBM, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your kind comments.
Luckily I didn't bang my head :-)
Yes, I agree, it is very similar to the old Anderson shelters!
Best wishes & take care.

Peter Castell club
No doubt very popular when there is a sudden shower !! with you mentioning the lake was it the entrance to a icehouse? although it's wide for that, maybe a small grotto which were popular for a while. It's not been very tropical today, enjoy your Tuesday Rosalyn
2 years ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter Castell club
No the ice house is near the main Stourhead House Peter. This cave is halfway up a steep hill to the Temple of Flora. I don't often go there but felt I needed the exercise this time :-) The seat came in very handy for a rest.
