From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bradgate Park is a public park in Charnwood Forest, in Leicestershire, England, just northwest of Leicester. It covers 850 acres (3 km²). The park lies between the villages of Newtown Linford, Anstey, Cropston, Woodhouse Eaves and Swithland. The River Lin runs through the park, flowing intoCropston Reservoir which was constructed on part of the park. To the north-east lies Swithland Wood. The park’s two well known landmarks, Old John and the war memorial, both lie close to the 200m contour.

This is what Peter’s cousin Margot wrote at the back of the photo she sent us:

We had a lovely day with cousin Margot at Bradgate Park. Margot and her husband Richard also went with us to Leicester.
