Our summer trip to Arley Hall and Gardens, the home of Viscount Ashbrook and his family, took place on mid summer’s day. We were fortunate that the weather was kind to us even though it was not quite so sunny and warm as the previous few days.
We were welcomed to Arley by Margaret Rowland-Jones, Group Bookings Organiser, who explained the plan for the day, which started with a short break for refreshments in the Tudor Barn restaurant before we split into two groups to begin our tour of the Hall with guides Geoffrey Lomas and Eric Foster.
