N is for Northumbrian...


...gardens.

The first photo was taken at Bamburgh Castle, the second and third were taken at Cragside and the final photograph is taken at one of my fave places to stay - The Coach House at Crookham.

You take such lovely photos of the places you visit. I love garden shots. I love reflections, too, so guess which one is my favourite! ;)

Thanks for giving it the title Northumbria, rather than Northumberland.

I'm sorry to admit that I have never visited Northumberland. I hope to one day, and shall certainly visit its gardens.

Thanks for putting pictures with a name that I have heard. I have a CD from Nova Scotia with songs of the sea on it. There is a song that talks about The Northumbrian Straits. Thanks for the informative, and beautiful post.
