I had the chance about 3 years ago of buying a worker's cottage that did at one time belong to the estate. It was a much younger building (merely Georgian!) and had a beautiful and original walled garden - ideal for a greyhound owner. Unfortunately it's on a main road in the centre of town and the only place to park the car was in a very dark alleyway at the rear of the property with no direct access. The wall was included in the listed building status so the option of a gate was more or less out of the question. The walk from the rear to the front of the property was not easy and something I did not relish the thought of, with or without the dog in tow. A great shame as it really was beautiful.

Hippo's in the Nile, Uganda.
I was fascinated to learn they are one of the most dangerous animals in Africa.

Are you taking that photo lying down on your back? Did you just try and ride under that tree and knock yourself off of your bike?
