The village of St Mawes & the Percuil river estuary taken from the Tudor St Mawes fortress on the Roseland peninsula.

Boats in Padstow harbour in north Cornwall with Rock also in view on the north bank of the river Camel.

Only 50 years later! No steam engines or snow this time. Verdun is overshadowed by the terrible slaughter of the First World War battle but today it is a very pleasant small city. This view over the river Meuse and the Notre-Dame cathedral was taken from our hotel room window at the Jardins du Mess. Before our stay I had wondered about the hotel name and in what condition we would find it.... In fact the Mess refers to the officer’s mess, the role that this building played in WWI.
