Bexhill Association of National Trust Members - August 15

THE Association is enjoying an active summer with various Association activities. Since its Spring Coffee Morning held last May at Little Common which usually marks the start of its summer programme members have had a six-day holiday to East Anglia centred at Norwich. Visits were arranged to Ickworth House, Felbrigg Hall, Cromer, Sandringham, Norwich Cathedral, Blickling Hall Gardens and Park.

The return journey was made via the Broads and Sutton Hoo.

The holiday was followed soon after by an outing to Hall Place and Danson House and a very pleasant coffee morning in a member's garden at the start of July and a further outing a fortnight later to Walmer Castle and Deal.

A summer lunch is scheduled for the middle of August at Barnsgate Manor Vineyard with a post-lunch visit to Sheffield Park Gardens. Then a further outing is planned for early September to Alfriston and Firle Place.
