In the walled garden tidying and clearing of dead plants is underway. I love the old metal bin they still use there.

You could alway pretend lol its lovely there they grow a lot of veg I see is that for the estate or do they sell it to the public?

Both really.......there is a cafe where they do lunches using their own produce and then a shop where you can buy produce too........

That is good then as you know its fresh and organic, some time allotments sell or give theirs too, on the allotment I use to be on we use to give some sold.

No Janey ,, it's a lovely place , we had a garden centre in Holkam Hall in it's walled garden but it closed down and is in disrepair , We have heard that they are going to do it up ,! I will be looking forward to seeing what they do , I would like it to finish up like your Normanby hall garden , I think of it as yours ....LOL...

Ooh good Amy....keep thinking it's mine!! It was on a 99year lease to North Lincs Council, but will revert back soon to the Sheffield family,...David Cameron's wife is their daughter, I read somewhere where he called it that little place they have at Scunthorpe...lol (Don't quote me on this though).......

We went to Holkham Beach when we were there last year but didn't manage the Hall...lets hope they can get it back in shape....so much of Norfolk I would like to see.......:o)

Lovely and full up for November! I still use an old metal dustbin(was my father-in-law's) to store my garden bits and pieces. Netting , fleece, fertiliser etc!
