After our trip to Basildon Park, we ventured on to Grey's Court, a modest 16th Century mansion in a beautiful rural setting managed by the National Trust. Photography was not allowed inside the mansion, but the grounds were bright and blossoming with beautiful flowers and plants. Natalia and myself even climbed to the top of the 12th Century Tower for views over the grounds.After the tour of the house, we found a small building housing the magnificent donkey wheel, used to bring water up from a 200 foot well adjacent to it. I hope you enjoy the photos below.
