The Petwood

Phil & I had a wander around the 1940s festival weekend, at Woodhall Spa today. It was in incredibly hot!
This is a shot of the Petwood - these days a rather nice hotel. In the 1940s it was commandeered as an RAF Officer’s Mess (very grand as you can imagine!). And, yes that is a Spitfire aeroplane parked in front of it!

Beautiful capture, nice angle and framed by the trees.

I saw the plane immediately and thought, "Hmmm... on the front lawn?!" But it's a nice tie-in to its military mess hall days. Good shot.

Lovely composition

What a grand building. Just the place for an Officer's Mess. The Officer's Mess when we were at Rudloe Manor was the old manor house. Very grand with great views.
