Arrived at Trentham Park mid morning in time to board the 11am sailing of an electric catamaran which sailed close to a Heronry on an Island in the large lake. Only sailed one way as wished to walk the wild part of the lake. Rich in wildlife, spotting a Duck that I have never seen before and unable to identify. My mate Doug I am sure will help me.
The lake walk finishes at the Italian gardens which have recently seen a complete makeover after 200 years of neglect. The now derelict Trentham Hall is soon to be completely re-built as was when built in 1830 and will now be a 5 star Hotel.
Could have stayed all day but was commit ed to visiting the medieval town of Nantwich. What a delightful town. Job to believe the town was re-built in 1583 after the Great Fire. I am sure Nantwich and the area is someplace I will re-visit some day.
Arrived back at the hotel late afternoon after a very enjoyable day.
