Original - Bank Hall, Bretherton in Lancashire, a derelict jacobean mansion house built in 1608.
Reason
A view of old (Bank Hall) and new (Daffodils), the dead and derelict with a new lease of life from the flowers that still grow there. A good contrast of life after death in the season of spring. A fine example of jacobean architecture and also of derelict buildings.
