Nearby is the Fox Talbot Photographic Museum, Victorian woodlands and the Botanic Garden. There are plenty of options for lunch. In the afternoon we drive to Arundells in Salisbury, the home of the former Prime Minister, Sir Edward Heath. It is one of the finest houses in the close surrounded by a two acre walled garden stretching down to the River Avon. We shall visit in small groups so there will be time for visiting adjacent places of interest.
