Duppa Almshouses ~ Pembridge.

Lovely architectural image Rosa.

Thank you Jaap.

Es sieht sehr romantisch aus, aber wohnen möchte ich nicht darin :-)

I wouldn't mind living there ;-) Yes they do look romantic.

Such a beautiful old building, Rosa, lovely photo. Pleased you included the PiP... such interesting history... YS... John.

Thank you John. So many similar buildings in Pembridge. Many thanks also for your YS....Rosa.

Not a horizontal or vertical in place, Rosa. I wonder if the residents have to use blocks to support furniture.

I expect so Amelia! Michelle does in her little cottage :)

higgledy-piggledy ~~~ just the place for old sailors

A long way from the sea though Nick! :)

Very well photographed this historic group of lodging built for charitable purposes !

Thank you Pat. A Godsend in those times no doubt.

Interesting and pretty black and white construction!***

So many such buildings in this village Nouchet.

Very nice these timbered houses ! Have a nice evening, Rosa !

Thank you Ulrich.
You have a nice evening too :)

So very interesting and beautiful, Rosalyn ! ******

Thank you Christiane. It was a very interesting village.

Gorgeous almshouses and shot!

Thank you Andy.

Attractive old buildings Rosa. I love the uneven look to them. Looks as if they have retained a lot of their original features and are quite charming for it.

Yes they have Carol. Quite interesting where the middle windows are placed, and would be so interesting to look inside.

They are very pretty, I love the crooked beams! I know it's a lot of work getting furniture to stand, but the lovely old houses make up for that.

The lack of level and straight lines gives a house some character Gudrun ;-)
Thanks for your kind comments.

A lovely 'find' and a super shot Rosa.

What wonderful weather we are suffering !!!!

Thank you Jeff.
Hasn't stopped raining all day here!!

Hi Rosa,

A fantastic find here! so well maintained, and you have captured them brilliantly.
I will have a bet that the roof has been replaced since the original 1661 build!

Best Wishes and a rather late HFF
Peter

Hi Peter, I am sure you're right about the roof :) Thank you very much for your kind compliment.
Best wishes, Rosa.

That is an interesting terrace of cottages; nice and interesting!

There was another terrace of almshouses in the village, I have since read but I don;t thik we saw them. Something to look for next time!

Ein schlichtes, altes Fachwerkhaus, Rosa.
Gut, daß es die Zeit überdauert hat.
Danke sehr für das Zeigen und die Worte.
Freundliche Grüße und eine gute Woche
Erich

Thank you Erich. I am always pleased when notes are written with peoples photos, as it is so easy to translate them on this site, so I try to do the same.
Enjoy the new week.
Best wishes, Rosa.

kunnen nu niet veel mensen in worden verpleegd--maar het ziet er geweldig uit
Ik las sommige commentaren van ian en andy...ik vindt dat ian gelijk heeft als hij zegt dat debischop van winchester zichzelf niet te kort deed----precies als hier in die tijd,,,,bisschoppen waren geldzuigers--iedere arme moest belasting aan hem betalen die smeerlappen hadden het goed----Groet Rosalyn Mooie Dag Verder

Isn't that always the way with taxes Fred!! The poorest usually pay the most and the rich get away with murder....At least Bishop Duppa gave a little away ;-)

Ein sehr schönes altes Fachwerkhaus - I like it -
