Unfortunately, my dream never came true – well, it took me six years just to pass my driving test for one thing!
Currently the remains of the property are Grade II listed buildings and there are plans in place to rebuild and restore so hopefully it will return to its former grandeur. The gardens are still open to the public and the Trentham Estate offers lots of things for families to do along with music e...Like Father, Like Sons #19
