Through the graveyard gate.

Penshurst Place, Kent, England view map

In the far corner of the churchyard,is a timber gate,with a latch.It must be 6ft 6ins. tall,with a wooden frame above.It is locked.At the top is a 5 inch gap,twixt door and frame.This is the shot I obtained by holding my camera up to said gap.I've rarely encountered any building so deliberately set up to be un-photographable as Penshurst Place.All across the front elevation is a 10ft. high hedge,and just when you've worked out how to photograph the house,minus the hedge,one discovers that an enterprising soul has planted a copse just at that point to prevent such action.Or from the road,another hedge.
