What a lovely quiet village. Not many places around the UK that you are free from the world of motorways and heavily trafficked roads. Abbotts Ann is one such village. A very relaxing day. Painted Fran’s shed a greyish colour to match the garden setting. Did some reading, talking, drinking and eating - a good way to spend a day!
Had a walk around Abbotts Ann, a very quaint ancient village. First settled in around 50BC, it has seen Romans, Norman, abbotts and a father of a Prime Minister making significant contributions to the village over 2000 years. The name Ann comes from the Celtic “Anne” meaning ash tree stream.
Fran’s house is the old school house built originally in the 18th century by the developer of the very first iron plough.
