Setting off on the Tolkien Trail at Stonyhurst

 After looking at St. Peter's church:

It was time to set off on the Tolkien Trail at Stonyhurst:


A stone throw away from both St. Peter's and the Stonyhurst entrance above, stood a group of houses hidden by trees:


 My travelling companion told me that New Lodge, where Tolkien stayed three times during the 1940s, stood somewhere amongst the group of houses:


 I did have a short look around:


But refrained from fully entering the grounds.

A nice stretch of water near the group of cottages, St. Peter's church, and the Stonyhurst College entrance:

What a beautiful early Saturday afternoon, it was turning out to be.
