Anne Hathaway was William Shakespeare's wife and this was the house where she grew up. The earliest part of the house dates to 1463, when it was still a three-roomed building with only one floor; the higher part is 17th century, being built between April 1610 and October 1624. HWW to Everyone & a Happy New Year.

A selfie by the wall. Designed by French architect Jean Nouvel the National Museum of Art in Doha takes its form from the desert rose - crystals of gypsum that form in arid sandy conditions. HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.

House with interesting roof (& walls) by the Blavet river at St Nicolas des Eaux. HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day!

The Victorian cattle market was located at Freeman's Common until 1990 & this Grade II listed building, now the Counting House pub, was the market refreshment rooms. The redevelopment of the area into a retail park & cinema complex took place in the mid-90s and involved a new road lay-out with multiple traffic lights and one-way systems. The clock tower is a fine feature & would have been important to know the time when it was a market but sadly today the clock is not functioning. HBM to everyone. Enjoy the day.

Last weekend we did a 7 mile Bank Holiday walk around the Manifold Valley & passed New Hall in the village of Waterfall as we climbed up out of the Hamps valley. This was a short detour off our planned route to have a beer at the Red Lion in the village. From "Staffordshire Past Track": The village of Waterfall is situated in the Staffordshire Moorlands, north-west of the town of Ashbourne. It is a very typical Moorland village with its buildings built of stone. The place name is a descriptive one and comes from the fact that the River Hamps falls into a subterranean watercourse between the village of Waterfall and Winkhill. HHF from the Peak District and have a great weekend.

The warm evening light makes the warm Yorkshire grit of the Gatehouse on Low Hills Lane, Lindley even warmer! Designed by Edgar Wood and built in 1900 as coachman’s accommodation this unusual building marked the entrance to the Fieldhead estate which is now completely built over. HFF & have a great weekend!
