Cat Seat

Jerome the cat looks pensively and lovingly at the camera. She is sitting on her favourite seat - the Oak Tree seat in the Hen House Garden.


Oak Tree Seat

The Oak Tree seat is right by the water, almost directly opposite the glass house. It is brilliant catching the late afternoon sun in the middle of winter.

Many of the paths and seats at Mooseys are quite mobile as the design of the gardens changes. This seat, however, is in such a perfect spot that it has stayed put. I often find Jerome the cat here stretched out in the afternoon sun - cats instinctively know the best sunny spots, don't they!

Mass Plantings

Directly around it are mass plantings of short spikey grasses, name unknown. Small paths lead from the seat in three different directions of the compass - decisions, decisions!

It remains to provide a direct route over the water race - perhaps a stout plank would be the answer - and the Oak Tree seat could then be approached from all four sides.
