Just as a point of interest the copper beech avenue from Monkey Gate to the hall has a planting history of 1840 but it does not say how big the trees were that were originally planted.

Someone will ask - the gates are called Monkey gates as the owner kept Barbery monkeys as pets and they would sit at the gate keeping guard. When they moved in to Wolverston Hall it was the monkeys that saved the house from a fire as their alarm call saved the house from any real damage.
