UK and Europe Roadtrip - Sissinghurst

The site that Sissinghurst Castle Garden sits on, was once a Saxon pig farm. It was never what you would call an actual castle. The tudor buildings were used as a prison in the mid 1700s then a poor house until the estate reverted back to the Cornwallis family in 1855. The structure Pete is standing near is referred to as the Elizabethan Barn.
