We visited a church (Pete's pictures here) in the small village of Clayton in Sussex.. I still haven't mastered indoor photography yet so Pete's pictures can illustrate the church ;)
On our way out we crossed a busy main road, to see what this structure was. Hardly believable but it was a railway bridge and tunnel. I've never seen anything so grand for a railway!
From there we decided to go to Standen House and Gardens. It was a first visit for me although Pete had been before. I was in for a treat!
The conservatory was floodlit with sunshine and wonderfully warm... I could easily imagine on a winter's day, retreating with a glass of something nice and a good book with music in the background!! Sigh!
A good day in good company and thanks Pete for the introduction!

Very nice Tricia, but looks like a hell of a place to keep clean and tidy.{:)
I could go for that house as well. Great shots. I also love the pictures of all the autumn colours....wonderful!
"What do we get? Ikea Arrrgh!!!"
That's what people want now. My elderly relatives can't sell old wood furniture because no-one appreciates it any longer, they just want cheap throwaway stuff.
A lovely spot ~ inside and out! Thanks for the tour and I'd like to move in, too :)
Hi Shantana - great to have you here again. Thank you for your kind comments.. it is indeed a lovely place :D
Keith... Amazing bridge isn't it!! You'd be very welcome to come live in my new home... I'll let you know when I'm moving in ;)
Wilma - it's rather a beauty isn't it!
Pete... yes you did - and it has loads of rooms :D
Paul - they definitely had the skills and knowledge to look after wood.. such a great medium to work with.
Roy... If I lived there, I think I could afford to have assistance with the cleaning don't you!! lol

Between-the-lines... yes; Ikea indeed! I love wood.. the smell and feel of it. It's alive as far as I'm concerned!
And many thanks for visiting and leaving your welcome comment!
