Glad to be reminded of Iverforth House - a lovely spot. And I like your project to walk between every tube station. Sorry to hear about your partner - I wish you both all the best.
I was very saddened to read that footnote - my best wishes to you both. I can also remember discovering the Pergola and Hill Garden for the first time, around the turn of the century, and not quite believing it was real. It’s a lot better known these days, thanks to Insta and TikTok, which is good to see, but also robs the place of some of its magic.
Strangely, it has been through the medium of TikTok - which I consider myself far too old for - that I have discovered how popular it is! It completely passed me by in 2004-6 when we lived nearby.
Thank you for another fascinating post. You’ve encouraged me to do more reading into Lever and his empires. I was very sorry to read your bad news. Sympathy from strangers is thin gruel, but I hope it helps to know that I - and I’m sure many others - are thinking of you.
