Sunbury Walled Garden and Embroidery Gallery

What a great day - a trip  Sunbury on Thames, where we visited the Walled Garden and the Embroidery Gallery.  I hadn't been to Sunbury for years, and how some things have changed and some hasn't.

This beautiful Millenium Embroidery of Lower Sunbury is in a Gallery in the 18th Century Walled Garden, which is surrounded by parkland and just a short distance from the River Thames.  Unfortunately, I forgot to take a photograph of the Millenium Embroidery.  

The cafe which we visited first for a light lunch overlooks the Walled Garden, before we had a walk round the gardens.  So much to see and so peaceful. 



Trust me to photograph the gold transfer on the window of the Cafe.

This beautiful tree was in the Sunbury Park - where we cut through to reach the Gallery and Walled Garden.



Man at work!




Lots of statues and seats


 A lovely place to sit in peace and watch the world go round.  Today was hot and sunny, but plenty of trees if you want shade.

We left the Walled Garden to Thames Street for a short walk along the Thames


 Everything has changed over the years

St Mary's Church where I, my parents, my Aunts and Uncles and one of their Grandparents were married.  The Church is very old. 

Excellent day out!
