My World (8)

My World (8) = Grantham Lincolnshire UK - is my little part of My World.


21 Miles south of Grantham down the A1 is Stamford.


Where another Stately home is = Burghley House. (click to check out). The Lake.


By the Lake are many Sculptures


One of many is the Tree Sculptures




In the Garden of Surprises - one of many water features.




The Exit - You have to find how to turn off the water


Fountain to get out - then you only have 1 minute


and it starts again - or you could walk all around to the


entrance to get out - if your feet can take the long walk.

(or walk through it - and get wet.)


Hope you have enjoyed - There's lots to see and its a very enjoyable day out.




Have a pleasant week my Blogging Friends.




My World and Skywatch - Goes Hand in Hand.


The Team-


Klaus - Sandy - Ivar - Wren - Fishing Guy - Louise.

Gorious photos! While I love the fun of the fountain, I think what fascinates me most must be those leaping figures in the tree! Great post!

I love the intellectual water feature! Thank you for this treat.

I apoloise for for getting the Áustralia' behind my name, I was so late posting and anxious to be on that I did not notice it was not automatically there. Sorry again.
