An old house, a little cottage, lots of outhouses, a beautiful hay barn……… a river running under an old bridge in the garden.

Tin roofs, old metal, farm machinery, rusty tools…

Boxes of old books and letters, discarded possessions, the detritus of life.

All the things that inspire me as an artist.

The perfect location for an Art Gallery and Studios.
