Herrick Hall

March 2023

This was a quick trip to organise the reconnection of mains power - what a luxury that will be for my next trip!!! Speaking of lux, on this trip I was welcomed by the sweet sound of a functioning, flushing toilet - well, outhouse, but still.......

Quite a few small tasks were completed, with help from Jane and John, and a few choice tip shop purchases.
