I've not done much walking since my visit to Sheila's caravan what with one thing and another so it was nice to get out for a lovely, easy walk in the blustery autumnal sunshine to see the tree colours in Burton Constable Hall's grounds.
Mo got us special permission to enter this way rather than through the main hall's entrance as this is the entrance for the caravan site only. To be honest, I knew this bit existed but I never realised it was sooooo big! There's some nice trees on the drive up to the gatehouse too. Some food for thought for a winter/wet weather walk.
Some pics:

| Walking past the caravan site I think a lot of folks come here for fishing holidays |
 |
| Ohhh the irony! You can't see from the pic but there's a whole row of guys fishing! |

| Lovely view down the lake from the bridge |

| Good to get up close |
