Hi everyone! Was at the allotments the other day (new Allotment Corner post coming soon!) and it was such lovely weather that I took a load of photos on my walk back home. Thought I would put them up here to give you all a virtual tour round our village.
 |
| The playing fields where the allotments are located. |
 |
| A lovely trough of flowers outside the entrance to the playing fields. |
 |
| This house has a really cool painted pig statue in the garden! |
 |
| A close up - the picture is of a river with fish and frogs etc. and the upper half is the river bank, clever! |
A converted chapel, makes a nice home.
The Village Hall - regularly used for Craft Fairs, theatrical productions and other village entertainments!
 |
| The local pharmacy |
The Co-op with the Dog Grooming Parlour next door.
Some more lovely cottages.
The Chippy - our favourite establishment!
The High Street with Church.
Church tower - our village is famous for its church clock, if you look closely there is no number 10 but there are two number 12s. Local legend states that the person who commissioned it was always told by his wife that he had to be home from the pub by 10 o'clock so he made sure that 10pm would never come. Don't know how true that is but makes an interesting tale!
The Market Cross - 14th century.
Churchyard with assorted gravestones.
The local watering hole - yay cider!
 |
| Our little row of cottages. |
And so we return home. Hope you enjoyed our little tour around the village. Look out for Allotment Corner #3 coming very soon!
Lotsa love, D x
