Here’s another lovely event – an open day on the New Hall Estate. Being neighbours we often walk through the grounds with Cosmo – it’s beautiful! I’ve been longing to see inside the walled garden – so this weekend is my chance!
I’m also looking forward to seeing the lovely Daniel Killeen’s exhibition of his artwork (paintings of Coast, Loch & Forest, from Shetland to New Hall) in Old Cottage on the estate.
New Hall Garden Garden will be open on Sunday 27th July between 2pm and 5pm as part of Scotland’s Gardens Scheme.
