On our second day we went to Hinton Ampner, an
amazing house which was restored to its original Georgian splendour in the
early twentieth century.
It then had to be restored again after a fire in 1960 and in
2014 part of the roof blew off in a storm so the National
Trust is still working to put some of the bedrooms back the way they should
be. It was interesting to see the
different stages as well as the rooms which are complete.
We had lunch in the onsite café and then explored the
gardens.
It’s unusual to see a scarecrow
sitting down and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a scarecrow shaped like a dog
before. Isn’t this clever?
