How we got to Rousham

Rousham Eyecatcher

It was quite  by accident that we came on the eyecatcher at Rousham. We were totally lost and though it was obvious that we were in the vicinity I couldn't work out the correct route. In the silent high-walled village of Steeple Ashton we turned down what became a farm track and there it was. From its location I could work out the direction for Rousham and we soon got there. Eventually Shire publications asked if they could use my photo and sent me in return a copy  of their new book on Georgian Garden Buildings. Unfortunately they cropped out most of the image.The original is above.It is an interesting book nevertheless.
