I just stopped in to let you know our Downton Abbey Tea was a big success with more then 45 people enjoying a stroll through the gardens,the boathouse, Gardener's Cottage and High Tea. We had a beautiful sunny afternoon for the tea and I have had several requests to make it an annual event-sounds like a good idea but your turn next year!
I loved seeing everyone all dressed up for the occasion and I will share more of that later.I had lots of good help from family and friends -so thankful for all they did to help out but a few days of down time are looking good so I will be back soon with lots more photos of our Downton Abbey Tea.
Thank you for stopping by,
Carolyn

Hi Barbara,
Thank you for your visit. I checked the plate you asked about and it has no name on the bottom only a little gold mark.
Thank you all for your kind words.
