Music in the Forest

Whilst I was on my walk through the forest, I came upon these two guys that had met up to enjoy each other’s company and share their music. Lockdown is making us all seek out our enjoyment along with the company of others where we can.

Finchcocks

I visited Finchcocks Musical Museum in August 2015 and I have just heard that the museum has closed down early this year (2016). I was kindly given permission to take my tripod in and take photos of their collection, unfortunately I was not happy with the results so I did not post any photos of this visit. I had intended to pay another visit this year and do a better job. In view of the fact that the collection has been sold and therefore I guess it is unlikely to be seen as a collection again so I am putting up my images in this post, warts and all. I am sorry but I have not collected the names of each instrument.

When I visited there was a recital in progress so I had to be very quiet and as this is a very old building with a very large collection I found this very difficult to do.  

A Google search for “ Finchcocks” will give you the full story.

Hatfield Forest Woodfest


I spent a very enjoyable afternoon at my local National Trust forest where they put on a wood festival. Lots of wood carving and musical entertainment, something for all the family.
