This is really one of my favourite photos of Hoghton Tower. I don't remember having ever seen the internal gardens, although I have been to the Tower many times!

The lodge was built in 1876 by Charles de Hoghton. I was born here in 1963 as my parents, Eric and Betty Miller-Crook rented the house after their marriage in 1958.

My Aunt Marion is the lady in the white dress. She had lived at the first cottage at the end of the lane, adjacent to the Lodge, as my great grandfather worked for the Estate.
