Beautiful little village below Bredon hill, with a magnificent 800yr old Yew Tree in the church grounds.

From our research, this dry stone well was originally dug sometime between 1800 and 1810. It was a clear indication that the Dipping Pond was insufficient for the needs of the garden by then, either due to limited capacity or simply because it was too far to carry water up to the top. When we first arrived, the only indication that it even existed was marked by a broken-down fence and some barbed wire. Who knows what might have fallen in there during the 50 years of abandonment. To render it safe, we constructed a red brick head with a steel grid, rather than opting to fill it in and, perhaps, later regretting it. It was Autumn of 2022 when we revisited the prospect of further investigation, this time through necessity. For the second consecutive year, the Gardens had suffered from drought, with our water storage tanks running dry. We needed to act to avoid future recurrences and the prospect of adding more unsightly tanks was unappealing and expensive. The Well seemed an obvious choice to explore, despite the risk of what we might find down there. Unfortunately, it needed to be dredged to bring the level down to below the water table. After a lengthy discussion with our site manager, it was mutually agreed that neither of us were prepared to climb down the well. So, after a Google search, we found a specialist well dredging firm, who agreed to take on the task. The husband-and-wife team arrived in November, set up their tripod with block & tackle and began their work. He operated the pulleys while she was lowered into the hole with a bucket and trowel. After several days of excavating dark and smelly sludge, they hit some inanimate objects which were too heavy for their lifting equipment. A week or so later, they returned with a heavy-duty overhead crane, which proved sufficient to retrieve the cast iron pump which, at some point, had been cut into shorter pieces and thrown back down the well. With the offending objects now removed, they were able to complete their task and restore the well to its former glory. Happily, we now have an abundant supply of water to keep the irrigation system topped up all year round

The Croome Walled Gardens are privately owned, historic, and restored Georgian gardens, separate from the National Trust's Croome parkland. Originally dating to the 16th century, they were brought back to life by Chris and Karen Cronin starting in 2000. The gardens feature large greenhouses, a rose garden, and vegetable plots, and they are open to the public from April to September on weekends and bank holidays. History and restoration The gardens were once part of the landscape designed by "Capability" Brown and fell into ruin before the restoration project began. The privately owned gardens have been restored by custodians Chris and Karen Cronin since 2000. The gardens are notable for their size and the 18th-century records that have survived, making them of national importance. They were once used to supply food for Croome Court and include historical features like a 13-foot high "hot wall" from the early 19th century.

This roundabout is a 'left-over' from when Croome Court was a Catholic boys' school in the 1950s, 60s and 70s.

The beautiful green oak bridge, a very photogenic highlight of the park.

Capability Brown designed this as a viewpoint across the park, and it is still a grand place to sit and look.

A beautifully contructed bridge, made from green oak, recently rebuilt.

A worthy addition to the National Trust. Wonderful house, set in Capability Brown's first landscape park.

This beautiful and noble tree has seen better days, but hopefully it will survive for a few more years yet. Unfortunately parts of it got broken off during a particularly violent storm a few years ago, and as a result it is not as stable as it used to be, hence the fence around it.

Down by the end of the River you can get a superb view of the Park Seat, a beautifully built feature of the park. This picture, taken on a stormy day. has featured on the BBC weather programme!

A picturesque feature of the park, with exceptional views of the lake and house.

The walk along the main ridge gives an elevated view across the park with its river. In the distance the Malvern Hills dominate the horizon. There are number magnificent trees along the ridge, as well as some very shapely dead ones.

After the Mother of God, "MARY MAGDALENE" is the most frequently mentioned woman in the writings of the New Testament. Originally called "Mary of Magdala"—after her place of origin on the Sea of Galilee—the name "Mary Magdalene" has evolved over time. According to the testimony of the evangelists, she is one of the women and men who followed Jesus Christ. According to the biblical accounts, Mary Magdalene is also one of the three who, after the crucifixion and burial of Jesus on Easter morning, wished to anoint the body of Jesus, and the very first person to ever meet the resurrected Christ. Pope Francis therefore honored her as 'Apostle of the Apostles', saying at a general audience: + "She shows us the God who knows us human beings, who cares for us, and who cares for our lives. Every person is a story of love that God is writing on earth. As with Mary Magdalene, the life of every Christian is immersed in this overflowing joy: We have a God at our side who calls us by name and raises us up, who, through his resurrection, transforms us and the world." The feast day of Saint Mary Magdalene in the calendar of saints is, in all major Christian denominations, July 22nd.

Photo: Tom Jones OVERVIEW A masterpiece of architectural fantasy The original church at Croome was demolished by the 6th Earl of Coventry when he decided to replace his adjacent Jacobean house in the 1750s. His new house and park were designed and laid out by Capability Brown as was the church, set on a low hill nearby in Croome Park as an 'eye catcher'. The views out to the Malvern Hills on a clear day are spectacular. The interiors of both house and church are attributed to Robert Adam and were completed in 1763. Built by some of the finest craftsmen in England, every detail has been considered, from pretty plaster mouldings to handsome carved pews - the church is a perfect fantasy of the period, with elegant Gothick windows and plasterwork, pulpit, communion rails, commandments and creed boards. Opulent monuments brought from the old church, long since demolished, show the former Barons and Earls of Coventry in their full glory. The earliest - in black and white marble - shows the 1st Lord, who died in 1639, reclining under a canopy. The monument to the 1st Earl, who died in 1699, is missing because the 2nd Earl disapproved of his father's second marriage, at an advanced age, to a servant, Elizabeth Graham. His monument is now in the nearby church of St Mary's at Elmley Castle instead.
