Benton End House & Gardens Private Tour with Dinner and Overnight stay at the Marquis, Layham Suffolk A unique opportunity, before it opens to the public, to visit Benton End House and Gardens in Hadleigh, Suffolk, the sixteenth century former home of celebrated artist-plantsman, Sir Cedric Morris and his partner, the artist and sculptor, Arthur Lett-Haines. The property is now owned by the Pinchbeck Charitable Trust which, along with the Garden Museum of London, is preparing to open it as a centre for the study of art and horticulture. In this beautiful, historic, half-timbered house, itself a wonderful example of typical Suffolk architecture, Sir Cedric and Lett established the East Anglian School of Painting and Drawing which was, in its time, to become one of the most original and influential centres for artists and writers of the 20th century. Amongst the long list of those who visited and worked there, were artists Lucien Freud, Francis Bacon, Christopher Wood, Paul and John Nash and Suffolk’s own Maggi Hambling, as well as the cookery writer Elizabeth David, the gardener/garden writer and owner of Sissinghurst Castle Vita Sackville-West, the florist Constance Spry, along with the musicians, Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears. Beth Chatto, who was a close and dear friend of Sir Cedric, credited him and the garden at Benton End with opening her eyes to the world of gardening and later established her own, now famous garden in nearby Essex. She is considered by many to have become one of the most accomplished plants women ever. Two guests will be given a private tour of the Gardens by Sarah Cook, former Sissinghurst Head Gardener, who holds the National Plant Collection of irises bred by Sir Cedric Morris. Along with Howard Nurseries, Sarah was awarded Gold at 2015 RHS Chelsea Flower Show, for a display of these fine, vintage irises bred by Sir Cedric. A tour of the house and tea will also be offered. The garden still contains a large number of bulbs grown by Sir Cedric and this is a unique opportunity to see it and the house before a conservation and renovation programme takes place. The best time to view would be from March to May 2021. The tour will also include a digital presentation of the garden as it was during Sir Cedric’s lifetime. To complete this unique experience, luxury hotel and restaurant, The Marquis at Layham, is offering overnight accommodation and dinner for two. With elegant country suites, contemporary British food and a comfortable stylish bar, The Marquis is the perfect place to enjoy all that the region has to offer. Situated near Benton End, with stunning views across the Brett Valley, those same views which often featured in paintings by, and were certainly enjoyed, by Sir Cedric, Lett-Haines and their many famous visitors and students. T&C’s Apply Final bidders to agree mutually convenient time and date for the Tour and Overnight stay (subject to availability), with Benton End House & Garden Trust, Sarah Cook and The Marquis Layham from Spring 2021 Subject to related government guidelines Experience may not be resold or re-auctioned Please note final bidders are advised to view the Gardens between March – May 2021 when they will be at their best Donated by: Benton End House & Garden Trust, Sarah Cook and The Marquis Layham https://bentonend.co.uk/ and https://themarquissuffolk.co.uk/

A PAIR OF IRISH CELTIC SANDSTONE HEADS, modelled as a male and female, each carved with pronounced features in relief, the female with characteristic coiffure, each 36cm high Provenance: Formerly Moress, Inch Island, Co. Donegal Inch Island situated in the far north-west, at the neck of Lough Swilly, is home to a rich heritage of historic sites including Neolithic standing stones, bronze-age graves, iron-age forts, an early Christian sites and medieval castles. The area is renowned for the Flight of the Earls in 1607, which paved the way for the plantations and the arrival of Scottish and English settlers in the area. They replaced the Old Gaelic and Anglo-Norman families who had ruled for centuries. As the Plantation began, Inch was owned by Arthur Chichester, Lord Deputy of Ireland. He surrendered tracts of land to the King's Grantee, the Duke of Lennox, including thousands of acres in the Laggan and in Inishowen. Recent scholarship has shown that a large number of Celtic heads are in existence. While the discovery sites are not always known, and they are often moved from their original locations, these heads placement in Moress, a site of Gaelic families and later British settlers adds to their intrigue. As Celtic idols, the plantation settlers, as Presbyterians, would presumably have refrained from displaying the heads in their house. For the Celtic stone heads, the range in terms physiognomic features are quite broad but sculpting of hair as a characteristic is not uncommon. In particular in later Romano-Celtic versions, there are examples of quite elaborate coiffures. The deeply incised lines and detailed modelling were used to suggest individual strands of hair, as on the female head in this lot. Both heads are entities in and of themselves, with substantial necks, not attached to a torso but most likely set into wall similar to Celtic head in rear of the Church at Rostherne near Knutsford in Britain. The human head is central to Celtic iconography, appearing in many materials, stone, wood and metal. Their significance as objects of religious symbolism is similar to that of the cross for early Christians.
