Itโ€™s that time of year again when people are starting to head off on holidays all around the world or enjoy a summer break close by โ›ฑ๏ธ

One person in Wallington's history who loved to travel was Caroline Philips, Lady Trevelyan, wife of Sir George Otto Trevelyan. Caroline was a talented watercolour artist, and produced many pieces here at Wallington and on her travels.

This monthโ€™s Treasure Tuesday is our collection of Carolineโ€™s work, including these pieces from the 1860s and 1870s, produced on trips to Italy and Scotland.

To see more of Carolineโ€™s work, and to learn more about her and the other fascinating women who have lived and worked here, make sure to check out our Women of Wallington tours. The next tour date is Friday 26 June, 3.30pm-4.30pm. ยฃ5 per person.

It's time for another ๐ŸŒผ Bench of the Month๐ŸŒผ

Every morning before starting a hard day's work, Head Gardener Simon takes a moment to have a morning coffee on a bench in the gardens at Wallington. This month he recommends the 'storytelling chair' in the Garden of Imagination, further into the Walled Garden. Enjoy flowers, birdsong, and a tiny fairy door!
