I suppose I should have visited Crawley as I have family there, but I couldn't fit it into the route. I have flown into Gatwick Airport and also taken the coach from Heathrow to Gatwick. Great service that and the coach travels through a surprising amount of scenic countryside even though it's motorway. Well, I can't put a picture of Crawley because there aren't any!!!! Can anyone fill the gap?? So I will add a picture of Faygate which is close to Crawley. This is Faygate Place once the home of Lord & Lady Hawke where my mother was housekeeper/companion for over 20 years Picture by Cathy Longley Very cool, Cathy!!

Whoops. Good question about the colour - does it depend on the weather as to what colour the stone appears or is it software juggling?? I think it must be Charlie Chaplin, lol Igtham Mote is gorgeous but that is definitely in Kent so we will be seeing more of that place later. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
