👍 On our Road Trip through England, Wales and Scotland we focused on Castles, Abbeys and walks. The Titchfield Abbey we've visited on our first full day here in England. It was a hot summer day. A monday. And only really a handful people on site. Which is surprising, because these are beautiful remain...

The Grange at Northington
Historical place museum
👍 It's a very large building rather in the middle of nowhere! A beautiful "nowhere" though. We disbelieved Google Maps at first and missed the entrance and ended up driving all the way along a pretty but gravelly track! Google has it right! As soon as you are off the main road turn right. Could not ge...
