Everywhere you look on the internet people say its been closed around four years now, but one local I spoke to today said it was nearer seven (but what does he know? his parents only live opposite) :scratch:

Oh and apparently the National Trust are something to do with it etc etc blah blah, on with some pics..

it was my first proper outing with the 17-40mm L lens..

you've gotta love the 5D mark 2! these two were taken hand held in extremely low light!

and finally... light was fading fast..
