Waddesdon Manor and Gardens

Waddesdon is an estate and Village, the once was owned by the Rothschild's.

As we had arrived early, so we explored the local church

What we found was real little Community Church

That even still had the Baptistery Jug still out.

Beautiful Windows

To Finish with a great Old Door.

The town was full of Nice Old buildings.

But it was Waddesdon House and Gardens we had come to see.

In the Autumn

What a Great House to greet us at the top of a Hill.

Surrounded by Great statues 

And Gardens

We got a chance to explore the Aviary that is registered Zoo.

With Great Birds in it.

While we waited for our timeslot we got to study the details in the Exterior.

Once inside the beauty of the House came out to shout at us, This i how the very rich lived, and the collection was still in place.

To finish was the servants Quaters and the Kitchens that are now a restaurant.

But it was the fine details that amazed us.

This is just one of the doorknobs in the House.

WE explored the Stables and stopped for lunch there as well.

The Gardens were very extensive and we finally left at about 16:00 

But it was only 1:20 hours to the north of home.

One day to see one place. We were impressed.
