A Rhodes fence

Autumn 2019 and we are walking the old town of Rhodes. Every turning reveals another glimpse of history and interest. Here at the edge of the harbour is a closed small room, built into the wall. Do the step outlines show an old stairway or some kind of geometric pattern? A fence stops us from exploring further but it only raises more questions.

HFF, enjoy your weekend

The arch underneath the steps seems to be a block and a half depth to the steps if that what they are would be wide enough to take one person perhaps.A nice compositions and plenty of interest. HFF Herb & Hanwe

Thanks Nick. It may well have been a security shelter of some sorts as it was next to the main port entrance.

If you got of a ship, you certainly would have as it was by the old port entrance. Yes, some trips don't end like you would like them too. I have had a few of those too.

That might do it David, and he would say "certainly my dear Watson - this stands at the corner of the old port and was almost certainly used as a holding gaol - one can deduce that by the bars and dimensions.." ~:) ... Then again .... maybe not!

Hi Herb

A very nice picture, and interesting mix of fence and shadow.

Maybe closed off simply because it belongs to someone!!

Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Thanks Peter. This was at the corner of the old big port and so might have been simply an office or maybe a gaol perhaps.

Hi Andy. They most certainly did not. Infact the name comes from the ancient Greek Rhódon (rose). Doubt they play cricket on there too. Its all food for thought though :)
