THROUGH MY LENS = Opening of more trails at Mount Stewart

Last week I was part of a Rent – A - Crowd at the National Trust Property of Mount Stewart when the BBC was filming live. This post is about the opening of another new trail which would add another 4 miles to the existing trails.   We were instructed to go it a certain point round the lake and  there we met by one the  the BBC personal who then escorted us to the Squirrel hide which was opposite the trail to be opened.  So we waited there until our time came for the official opening by Jon Kerr, our  General Manager.


These are the 2 ladies and Smudge the dog I walked round the lake with and then met up with the others.

Jon Kerr was interviewed by Gavan Andrews and he also interviewed Bob of the workers that had helped make the trail as well as Jane, one of the regular walkers at this property. Then Jon cut the ribbon and we all set off along the new trail.

  2. That is wonderful news. We do not have a single public trail in our entire area of west Miramar, Florida. The last open area is now being developed for new houses.
