Montacute

Visits to Montacute through my life.

Went to Montacute with my gran when I was very small. She lived in nearby West Coker. Loved the feel of the place and was particularly fascinated by the writing on the glass. Have been going back from time to time ever since, the last time leading a school party when I allowed myself the luxury of not having a group to look after, but flitted between the various activities. The children loved it, so maybe this enthusiasm will pass down through more generations.

Bodiam Castle

Early morning mist

We camped in a dismal campsite overnight and, having no cooking facilities, were pretty soon off the site (by about 8.00 am). Typical early morning autumn mist. Went to look for Bodiam Castle and found it, but of course it wasn't yet open. However, a nice NT bloke said "help yourselves", so we wandered into this strange timewarp - the castle peering at us over mist, which looked like a boiling kettle above the moat.
