Holidays: Hampton Court Palace
http://courtadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/hampton-court-palace.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. While visiting East Molesey on 30 July I went for a walk along the banks of the Thames to Hampton Court Palace. Built 500 years ago this Tudor palace is a most impressive building. The palace is an easy walk along the banks of the Thames River from the East Molesey cricket ground. Numerous water birds, including swans, can be seen during the walk. It is quite a busy stretch of river with a variety of boats. When crossing the bridge the castle comes into view.
