Jamie's place

Having the English Heritage passes meant that we tended to take the byways rather than the motorways. We stumbled upon Jamie Oliver's father's place. Very nice too! It was near a fabulous house and gardens called Audley's end, unfortunately we forgot that lots of places are closed on Mondays!

There was a lovely row of cottages at Audley and one had a sign, "Lovely lady and grumpy old man live here" I asked a local if it were true. The answer was a firm "Yes"
