Pattern of pots in the potting shed

Pattern of Pots

Thursday 25th June 2015

Decided to visit Normanby Hall near Scunthorpe today. It has been on our list of places to visit for well over a year. The Hall was built in 1825 for the Sheffield family and is still owned by them, but leased to North Lincolnshire Council (The Prime Minister's wife Samantha who was a 'Sheffield' grew up on the Normanby Estate). The house is open to the public and the extensive grounds include a deer park, farming museum and a beautiful restored walled garden. On visiting the walled garden potting shed, I liked the pattern made by these old plant pots, stacked in rows.
