Vicar's Close in Wells, Somerset, is claimed to be the oldest purely residential street with original buildings surviving intact in Europe. These houses were built in the 14th and early 15th centuries and the close owes its origins to a grant of land and buildings by Walter de Hulle, a canon of Wells Cathedral, (Wikipedia) Whilst taking these images I listened to beautiful music played on a violin emitting from an open window originating from what I assume was the adjacent music school, As a point of interest, the houses " line each side of a quadrangle which appears longer than it is because of false perspective achieved by building the houses at the upper northern end nearest the chapel 9 feet (2.7 m) closer together than those at the lower southern end " (Wiki) PiP shows chimney detail and some deterioration of the stone work. Shot in 16.9 so a large view would be appreciated, Link to the Wikipedia page, (Thank you Janet )

One of my very early posts on joining Ipernity in 2014. Pap of Coe and Loch Leven from the Balachulish Bridge 2432 ft / 742m high, the Pap of Glencoe (or Sgorr na Ciche - Gaelic peak of the breast - yes really!) Loch Leven is a sea loch which extends 8 3⁄4 miles (14.1 km), varying in width between 220 yards (200 m) and just over 1 mile (1.6 km. The Ballachulish Bridge which replaced the Ballachulish Ferry was opened in 1975 and carries the main A A82 trunk road to Fort William and beyond.
