Wordless Wednesday - Langtons, Hornchurch
Langotns was a small manor house in the centre of Hornchurch. It was bought by the council some time during the last century and is now mainly used as a registry office and venue for wedding functions.
Thanks for your comments. I do love Langtons. It is a small but wonderful park to chill out in. It really uis a a wonderful venue for wedding functions.. My sister had her wedding functions there back in the 80s
I'd like to spend some time doing paranormal investigations of this place. Great Wordless, here's my Wordless post over at High Strangeness Altoona. If you're feeling saucy click my Alexa link to raise my rating. Patrick
