6th August
Ingarsby - Quenby - Botany Bay

These gates show that the land belongs to Quenby Hall.

They have a fine herd of organic English long-horns - cows with downward-sloping horns, which can end up almost circular, and markings that give their faces a rather surprised expression.

Under the main drive to Quenby Hall - dated 1777

The Hall itself, high on a hill, monarch of all it surveys. They claim that Stilton Cheese originates here. It is also the site of a lost mediaeval village.

A ha-ha. Can't have a wall spoiling the view from the big house.
