View north from the main gate with the imposing spire of St Constantine's Church in the background. The mansion is out of sight and the gate signs indicate that entry is forbidden. The sign on the right points down the road for the entrance to the Thorpe Estate and business park. The sign on the left indicates that this gate leads to the Thorpe Institute, which seems like a very unusual place, providing training for 'communicating with yourself and others more gracefully and effectively'. They're into thinking techniques and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (but perhaps not in the way I'm familiar with - ie artificial intelligence for computer systems). But their web site is certainly interesting (note the spelling of '2010 program'). Perhaps it is just the place to go to contemplate the meaning of life! http://www.thorpeinstitute.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorpe_Constantine Image
