Scenes from the road - Chartwell House and Gardens

Photos from my recent trip to Sir Winston Churchill's Family Home

Happy Tuesday, Substackers. I hope recent times have treated you well.

So, despite my best intentions to publish here at least weekly, juggling regular articles with my other commitments (writing and others) proved a step too far. Consequently, I’ve had to prioritise. 

Though I still intend to post more history articles here in due course, for the time being, I’ll be mostly sharing photos from my recent trips. If spring lives up to its promise, I’m hopeful there will be many more, particularly to sites that allow me to make the most of my National Trust and English Heritage memberships. It’s possible that a few might also sneak their way into my next novel - but more on that another time!

Below are some scenes from my recent visit to Chartwell House and Gardens, Sir Winston Churchill’s home for over 40 years. It was here, in his beloved family home in rural Kent, that Churchill was inspired to produce some of his greatest works of art and literature - not to mention take refuge from the constant pressures of political life.

Highly recommended for any Churchillian or anyone who enjoys a lovely garden!
