Art from the Heart

They say you can’t choose your family but I wouldn’t swap my Mum for anyone in the world. I recently had a landmark birthday and, as a present, Mum painted a fantastic picture of the big oak tree after which Oakfield is named. It’s so good, we’ve hung it above the fireplace in the main hall. If you come and stay, you can check both which landmark birthday it was and (roughly) how much older the tree is than me.
