Tyntesfield

Posted by antonys on 14 September 2009 in English.

Took advantage of the excellent Heritage Open Days scheme to get free entry to Tyntesfield, S of Bristol, at the weekend and wander round with the GPS getting some tracks. Got an initial version uploaded and edited, have asked the National Trust about working with them to get some more detail in. Also need to check out the mailing lists/wiki to get recommended tagging for NT properties. It's a fabulous house anyway, despite currently being covered in scaffolding, and the NT deserve credit for keeping it open while the work is going on and involving the public in the whole project.

Drizzly Saturday in N Somerset

Posted by antonys on 5 September 2009 in English.

Looks like summer is just about over here, but I managed to knock off a few more streets and paths around Winscombe this afternoon before the rains came down. Lots of people out and about though, still waiting for someone to ask what I'm doing exploring every street and cut-through, but it hasn't happened yet... Come back with a few nettle stings from some rather narrow and overgrown paths, but otherwise unscathed. Now to get the house sorted before my wife gets back.
