Camp Hill Gardens Open Day 2010

A view of The Waterfall
Approaching the back garden from the side
Visitors sample the delights of the open areas before embarking on a trek around the 40 acres, or a climb up The Waterfall.
Rhododendrons were in full bloom
Views from The Waterfall are truly breathtaking
Many parts of the grounds are secluded and peaceful
Yes, there is actually an elephant buried here. One of two in this area - the other is at Maer
The front garden and main approach track
As usual the tea and cake stand did a roaring trade
Garden Sculpture
Time to relax and unwind
By the end of the day the car park was finally starting to empty
The approach from the access road is a major highlight of the visit
Restoration of Wedgwood's house is proceeding apace
As you ascend the Waterfall trail you can catch glimpses of the views to come...
The Waterfall doesn't look too high until you try to climb it!
Once you reach the top of The Waterfall you are on Maer Hills, and the views are no less spectacular.
Finding your way on the path was no easy task!
Hidden paths make navigation of Camp Hill gardens a real challenge
An outcrop of rocks provides the perfect viewing point, overlooking the entire garden and grounds of Camp Hill
Looking down the slope towards the access road and house, hidden on the right
It was a busy afternoon!
Its no wonder Darwin spent so much time here
The Trentham Brass Band, formerly the Royal Doulton Brass Band and the City of Stoke on Trent Brass Band, finalists in this years National Brass Band Championship. Another highlight of a successful event.
