A Veritable Flood of Tulips at Great Dixter!

Explore June 14th #400 - The gardens at Great Dixter were created in 1910 by English architect Edwin Lutyens, in the manner of cottage gardens on a grander scale. The gardens are set in the grounds of the manor house, first built in 1220 and added to in 1464. The house boasts an impressive timber-framed hall, one of the largest surviving in the UK. The Great Hall's roof with its oak frame and crown post, is of particular note. It is decorated with carved shields and contains a fireplace, one of Lutyens additions. The gardens and home are owned by well known gardening author and lecturer Christopher Lloyd.

The start of our walk, just after leaving Longnor, heading for chrome hill (in the UK Peak District national park).

We'd already had a preview of the stunning views above the fog on the way there, and were quite hopeful that we'd gain enough height to get over the fog for some nice views.... :-)
