Save a few bollards and a tiny amount of signage you could easily be staring back to 1850 #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset
A last look at the buildings of Axbridge and a warning... if you're going to paint the front of your house, measure its height in relation to your ladder (or get some scaffolding) #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #FailsOnAFriday
Presumably 1.27 centimetred directly from the set of Game of Thrones (Mouse gone Metric) #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
Doors are a matter of taste and so most doors have their critics. This door though only has one knocker, but it's a beauty (see what Mouse did there) #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
Open pediment, engaged shafts, ornate carved capitals, traceried lunette and the patina of that panelled door! Oh Lordy. Just gor-ge-ous #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
(The niche bottom left would once have sported a nice #BootScraper too)
The unmistakeable tang of architectural authenticity. Pretty much unchanged since it was first built and beautiful #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset
Curious Orange #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset
Axbridge is apparently the smallest town in #Somerset and you can kind of tell as it has streets so narrow that your have to photograph most of its fine stock of heritage buildings at an angle. It really is a lovely place for an amble #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge
Planked, ledged, filleted and studded. All is well with this fine Tudor-style (possibly the real thing) door #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
A door from the past or a door to the past? fabulous pseudo-4-centred door to the C16 merchant's house, erstwhile ale house and now museum #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
The King's head, dating to the time when the building was an ale house of that name. Perhaps this is where it got it's King John's Hunting Lodge monika. Perhaps not #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #Woodensday
King John's Hunting Lodge. Mouse seen so many pictures and finally here it is, in the timber, so to speak. It was shut. And before anyone asks: "No he didn't", "No it wasn't", and "Nobody knows". Early C16 merchants house #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #Woodensday
Mouse love it when there are little clues to the past life of buildings. Wonder what this once was? #AlittleGlimpseOfAxbridge #Somerset #TilesOnTuesday
