PHOTOGRAPHY COURSES AT ANGLESEY ABBEY

Photography Courses at Anglesey Abbey

Photographic Subjects in Abundance at Anglesey

Behind its Jacobean-style exterior Anglesey Abbey is a vision of the golden age of English country house living, created by the first Lord Fairhaven and his brother from 1926 to 1966. 
Life revolved around horse racing and shooting, and weekend guests enjoyed the height of 1930s luxury. As you move outside, examine the 12th-century gargoyles of the original priory and see if you can find the 20th-century additions added by Lord Fairhaven and his brother in 1939. This is a mere taste of Anglesey's statuary – there are more than 100 pieces of classical sculpture in the formal and landscape gardens. There are the wildflower meadows and the Hoe Fen Wildlife Discovery area as well as the attractive Winter Garden, with its stunning year-round displays of colour.
A mill at Anglesey was listed in the Domesday Book and the present watermill, Lode Mill, dates from the 18th century. Restored in 1982, it is in full working order.
