We have been having some miserable weather over here in the UK so when my wife & I had our wedding anniversary the end of January we went out for a few hours to visit Basildon Park
This is the house but we did not go in, just had some tea and cake in the cafe
Portico, the entrance is through the three arches. Some of the rooms inside were used in filming Downton Abbey
I took these as we going, it's the old stable and carriage yard
Those were the stables no converted to toilets and a gift shop, the cartage house was behind me
I had to go to the local supermarket later and stopped to get a photo of Didcot Marsh
It going to be built on and the water you see is where the topsoil has been stripped back no doubt so they can do an archeological dig but at the moment it's living up to it's name and being a marsh. Good lock to who ever lives there.
Happy SkyWatch
