Afternoon Tea in Hangings Hall - We had an absolutely lovely afternoon tea. Our waitress was Lucia and she was so cheerfull and helpful and very attentive .I was with 4 friends and we were celebrating a 70th birthday. The only negative and it was a big negative, the hall was freezing and even when we moved tables it was still cold.
