Warwickshire is a county in the West midlands, probably best known by most people for the bithplace of William Shakespeare at Stratford-upon-Avon. This is where most people head for and it must be one of the most visited places in the Uk. But not for us this time - we were on a mission, hust passing through on our way down to the South West. Still managed to get a look at a few great National Trust houses, that were located just off the M42. Nice of the folks to build their homes in such convenient locations.
