Ps Waiting for the classic photo of Wast Water that I am sure is coming.

Glad that you enjoyed this one Toz. Do you mean my own classic mono or a possible new classic view from me?

Keep safe. Herb

A new classic view .

Beautiful buildings in stone, with gables roofs and sober facades
The chimneys are curious and reveal a cozy home for cold and humid weather
It's very pleasant to see the farm complex carefully arranged
Photographs with excellent perspectives and text allow to get the knowledge Cumbrian' human life
Many thanks, Herb

Thanks my friend. I am sure this will be very cosy indeed with the glow of fresh real fires. This is in fact one of the wettest area's in Great Britain so they need to be kept dry inside. I just enjoyed the lines here really. Great that you enjoyed them too.

Keep safe. Herb

These pictures really appeal to me Herb. Having once lived on a farm, I love the old traditional buildings. So many now have been converted to homes. Three great shots.
Cheers, Rosa.

Wow, you have lived Rosa. As we often pass real farms we are usually jealous of the placements in the countryside as well as the often well built and cosy looking dwellings but we know too that the real life in such places is most often hard and far from cosy. I think these buildings have been recently renovated but are probably still in the same family as is often the case. Very glad you liked these and hopefully they brought back pleasant memories for you too.

Keep safe. Herb

Nicely captured images of these beautiful stone buildings Herb............love the detail.

I notice some holes at the top of the gable end (one vaguely cross-shaped) and the other made from terracotta pipes......I'm guessing they're for bats or maybe just for air circulation?

Hi Keith, glad you liked these and the quality was up to your own high standards. The holes no doubt, mainly just for ventilation but as you say, maybe for small birds and bats too. That reminds me of a farm where we once had B&B -we woke up to bat flying around the bed-room. Eileen was not impressed!

Stay safe. Herb

Sturdily built, but that's par for the course in Cumbria!

Dead right there my friend. Most building are pretty solid up there. Something to do with a lot of natural stone from their own quarries I reckon. Cheers for the visit.

Keep safe. Herb

beautiful captures!

Herb, these are great.
The precision of the masonry is wonderful...and your cracking photo too!
