England - Ledbury, Church Lane

Ledbury is a small, yet bustling and vibrant market town in Herefordshire. It offers quite a lot of beautiful Tudor timber framed black and white buildings. Among them the Market House (PiP 3) on stilts, building started in 1617 and was completed in 1668. It is considered being one of the most beautiful examples in England and still hosts markets.

But for me the most picturesque part of the town was Church Lane (main picture, PiP’s 1 and 2). A beautiful medieval cobble stoned street just behind the Market House, lined with stunning timber framed structures, offering tea rooms, a museum and at the end of the quaint street a beautiful church. It felt if I was stepping back in time.

Superb series Jaap. I like the cobbled street view best (PIP1). You did well to avoid tourists in the scene.

Jaap, I do believe you've visited more places in England than I have..!!

Like you, I love these old timber-framed houses and always find it a real testament to the skill of the builders that so many of them have survived so long, and are still occupied.

You've captured these (and the ones in the PiPs) beautifully my friend. Great work..!!
