Aerial view taken 2000, photo courtesy Keith Poulton451 viewsInto my heart an air that kills

It was closed at the time but I managed to get in and take some photos which will follow on from this one. Ivan, (author of a previous photo) I hope they are of interest. mikew02/01/21 at 12:34Ivan: That looks very inviting!
