Shaw’s Corner

12/07/2009

House

To provide a break from packing and sorting, Mr C and I took a trip along to Shaw's Corner, the former home of George Bernard Shaw. We've been there a couple of times before and always enjoyed the peace and quiet and lovely gardens. This time was no different.

Although, my macro photography skills do seem to be improving.

One thing that all visitors must see though is GBS's revolving Writing Hut at the bottom of the garden. This is where he wrote many of his famous plays, with telephone connectivity back to the main house. The hut was designed to rotate to allow it to be turned around as the sun moved during the day. A genius idea.
