Terrific textures and nicely detailed Roger, I have just looked the Manor up and I must say there is some great photography to be had there. I was wondering if in the past there was an addition to the ball on top of the post.

Thank you Maurice, I worked in the manor back in the sixties when it was still a private house and well remember the beautiful minstrels gallery in the main hall.

I like the colour of the lichen and textures in the stone...........and the line of ivy creeping it's way upwards. The light is lovely and the gatepost looks good against the green background.

Lichen is normally a sign of good air quality!

Thank you Keith it's a good distance from a main road or any large center of population so the air quality should be quite good.

Many thanks Jean, I did wonder if the ball had been stuck back on the top at some point because of it's lean to the left.

Thank you Annalia, it is a post on a vehicle entrance so I suspect the slightly crooked ball has been refixed at some point.
