Autumn at Hardwick Park
We visited Hardwick Park in autumn, when the woodland was filled with shades of gold and orange. I love photographing this time of year. There was plenty of wildlife around the lake too, with waterhens, geese and a couple of swans swimming on the water.
As we wandered around, we also came across several old buildings and ruins tucked away among the trees.
We visited in autumn, and
all the trees had started to turn. I love the colours of autumn, so it was nice
to walk through the woodland at this time of year. The lake is home to
waterhens and geese, and we also saw a couple of swans swimming about.
There are several grade II listed
old buildings dotted about the 18th-century park. Four of the ruins were restored in the early 2000s – the Temple of Minerva, Gothic Ruin, Gothic
Seat and the Bono Retiro.
