In photos: Hannah Peschar sculpture garden, Surrey
Highlights of an afternoon at the Hannah Peschar sculpture garden, near Ockley in Surrey. Note: there is lots of sculpture but no tearoom nor any abstract representation of a tearoom.
My favourite sculpture? The pale pink marble monolith with a dripping pool of 'molten' pewter.
