Penshurst Place: 22 April 2006

A beautiful spring day ! The first time Nicky and I have been out with our cameras in the sunshine and we enjoyed a few hours wandering around the gardens here.
Penshurst Place has been the seat of the Sidney family since 1552. Set in the rural Weald of Kent surrounded by picturesque countryside and ancient parkland, Penshurst Place and Gardens has changed little over the centuries and is still lived in by the Sidney family. For the history of this medieval masterpiece see this website: http://www.penshurstplace.com/
