Hall and Fen

An Easter of visiting family and days out - starting with a walk round the wetlands at Wicken Fen:

















The nature reserve at Wicken includes woodlands and hedgerows (full of blossom) as well as the eponymous fen . . . 

Did spot some Muntjac Deer on our wanderings, but they didn't stay still long enough to get a good picture - in contrast the Highland cattle (part of the grazing management plan) posed beautifully . . .


Historic properties were not neglected - revisited Oxburgh Hall, including squeezing myself into the priest's hole (and squeezing myself back out again pretty darn quick - didn't like it in there!) - then called in to a smaller property, Benthall Hall in Shropshire, on the way home.
