Baddesley Clinton – The Courtyard

After crossing the moat you pass through the gatehouse in into the courtyard, with its yews, lawns and brick paths. It was created in 1889 by Edward Heneage Dering and has changed little since that time. The main charge of the Ferrers arms (seven mascles, or lozenges) is laid out on the lawn and is planted in its yellow and red heraldic colours. *

    I really am enjoying this series on Baddesley Clinton. I love the different aspects but I have to say – I love wisteria so this is my favorite.

      Thanks Marta, I am glad you are having fun following my journeys :-)

      Wisteria is lovely I have seen quite a lot round and about recently but I haven’t taken the perfect photo yet.
