Lady Dipti

Today Toby (the Cirencester local boy) showed me the sights.

Took a trip down the Bathurst Estate* in Cirencester.

Very posh indeed.

* The core of the Estate is approximately 3,000 acres, and has remained in the ownership of the late Lord Bathurst, the Eighth Earl (now in Trust for his lifetime beneficiaries) and covers the central parkland, including two of the six polo fields and the leisure area about one half of the woodland, a number of properties in Sapperton and the land surrounding the same village.

The remainder of the Estate, comprising of some 11,500 acres, is run by the 9th Earl Bathurst and managed for the benefit of succeeding generations, again in Trust.
