Lovely series Richard and what a delightful place to visit. Just had a look on Google maps, they have some very large grounds.

Thank you for the kind comments. Ken the estate runs to some 1800acres with lots of nice walks and some old trees. A photographers wonderland. Architecture, landscapes, woods and wildlife abound. The Fallow deer were too far away to get a shot. Saw another Treecreeper, this is about 7 or 8 in the last 2-3 weeks, but YET again it avoided my lens, as have all the others. It was quite dull and at times we had the odd spots of rain. The marble table was difficult due to direct low sunlight shining onto the table. My only option was to stand between the sun and the table.
The house used to belong to the Hervey family, who had a colourful history to say the least. We spent about six very enjoyable hours at Ickworth. Having joined the National trust we look forward to several nice days out.
