A field of purple on the Yaxley Road into Eye
A Visit to the Thornhams, Suffolk - 3rd August 2025
Isobel's Italian friend Stefano, plus his family, are over from Italy for a few days. As it's Sunday, we do a sort-of pub walk which involves a stop off at Thornham Parva to see the little thatched church, a walk around the estate in Thornham Magna, and finally lunch and a pint at the Four Horseshoes. A few days later though everything goes a bit Pete Tong as Nosher gets E. Coli poisoning which leads to a kidney infection, resulting in five days in hospital. Great.

Harvest is early this year
Mediaeval wall paintings and a oil lamp
The famous Mediaeval Reredos in Thornham church
Leaded diamonds and simple candlesticks
The cute church of St. Mary, Thornham Parva
St. Mary's Norman south door
The gang mill around outside the church
Another view of St. Mary
A bright red dragonfly lands on a bench
The throne is tried out
Davide has a go on the throne as Stefano looks on
Harry wanders off down the path
Some blackberry picking occurs
Walking through the leafy glades of Thornham
Harry peers through the window of the folly
Harry stands on the old carved dragon
A tree is hugged
There are loads of fungi around
Stefano chats to Isobel
A carved figure in the woods
The walled garden has reopened with a shop
The walled garden nursery
Funky gourds
Isobel reads a sign by the decaying glasshouse
Stefano wanders off
Davide hus the sad lion
We're in the Four Horseshoes' beer garden
Isobel visits and gets a hospital bed photo
Nosher's feet in a hospital bed
UKPN is farting around putting in a new supply
