I Visited Cliveden Today for a Walk without Digby Dog.

Today was Haircut Day  for Digby so I was at a loose end. The weather was outstanding. Clear Sky, Very Sunny and Warm, so Out with the Morgan, Roof Down, Walking Boots in the seat well and off I went.

Bright Sunshine - The Green Goddess in the Cliveden Walled Garden  Car Park.

Much of the Cliveden estate is Dog Free so I took the opportunity to go around to see what had changed.

The Flower beds were empty and the fountain was switch off. There had been some serious renovating to the House.

Here are my Photos of the areas I visited today.
