Petworth, what a pleasure to be there




The cobbled streets are delightful.





On a warm day it's good to find some shade to avoid the sun if you are fair skinned and freckled. 


The grounds of Petworth are magnificent. There are plenty of wonderful walks, an especially enjoyable experience on a bright August afternoon.






And as for the artworks in Petworth House, well they are also magnificent, marvellous masterpieces.
