Nettlebed and a Giant Yard Sale
About 30 minutes from Oxford is the lovely parish village of Nettlebed. It is known for the beautiful manor house and estate called Joyce Grove, which was the home of Robert Flemming, great uncle to Ian Fleming who wrote the James Bond books. The current members of the Fleming family still live locally, run the Estate, and take an active part in village life. Joyce Grove has been donated to a charity here known as Sue Ryder Palliative Care and is a hospice care facility.
