On Tuesday we went to Chartwell to see an exhibition about Winston Churchill and his exploits during his army career. Whilst there we went to a talk in the studio about his painting. It was most interesting and covered facts about many of his paintings.
This is a picture of part of the house,(I am in the centre of the photo)!
The back and side of this beautiful house.
The gardens, although sparse at this time of the year were laid out ready for the summer blooms. It was good to see the garden at this time of the year and all the work that is going on to get the estate ready for summer visitors.
The main part of the house is closed at the moment, (opens in March), only a section open which currently houses the exhibition.

Winston's fish pond.
As you can see, the weather was beautiful with just an occasional shower. It was a sunny but chilly day.
What a fantastic location for a talk. I bet it was very interesting. Great photos. Thanks for sharing.
