Good morning dear readers of Wear and Dao, anyhow we spent the morning awaiting the delivery of a beautifully made Jack and Jill bench comprising two two seats and a table, made and delivered by Cornerstone social enterprise based in Willington near Stanhope in Weardale County Durham, which specialises in the rehabilitation of ex-prisoners through employing them making furniture such as our new acquisition.
That was yesterday of course, today is Tuesday when your trusty old blogger and his trusty caring nurse and friend head off to Wallington Hall in Northumberland, Northeast England.
No time to waste! Wallington Hall opens at 10 and the National Trust place awaits ... Wallington was well known in Findhorn, Moray Firth where the New Age folks formed the community dedicated to a new age of enlightened humans with Sir George of Wallington in support of the Caddys and Dorothy MacLean their Canadian supporter of the endeavour created more than 60 years ago. Sir Charles of Wallington was the Socialist MP for a Newcastle constituency and gave away Wallington to the National Trust as a founder member of this wonderful creation donated to the Nation many years ago.
