Stoke Trister ~ My Monday Walk.

How lucky that you can go for a walk!!! Yours enviously, Andy!
(A lovely shot by the way!)

Thank you Andy. Yes an exercise walk each day but keeping to the sensible advice.
It must be very difficult for you over there. Take care and hopefully things will gradually get better.

What a wonderful walk, dear Rosa and such a peaceful moment for You !
Love the winding road and the details of the building in foreground.
All the best
Fabio

Thank you dear Fabio. Yes it was winding and hilly.
Good exercise for sure!
Stay safe & well.
All the best,
Rosa.

Superb composition of a lovely village that is totally new Rosa, it looks very peaceful,

Thank you posting your image in the group

Thank you Roger. Yes very peaceful
Take care & have a good day.

Magnifique et d'une parfaite quiétude ,
c'est sur qu'il fait bon de se promener
dans ce si beau village paisible et serein.
Bonne fin de nuit.

Thank you so much for your very kind comments Malik.
Take care & have a good day.

I hope that you do manage to find out what the little door was for, I suspect that you are on the right track. It looks to be a steep hill.

It was good exercise Nick ;-))
The little door reminds me of what many pubs used to have!

Die Vergangenheit liegt auf der Straße und wird von den Häusern begleitet, Rosa.
Freundliche Grüße und bleib gesund.
Erich

Thank you very much Erich.
I hope you are keeping well.
All the best,
Rosa.

Mooie opname die dalende weg en supergoede Compositie Bravo !

Thank you very much Fred.
Take care & have a good day.

The handle on the outside maybe suggests something went in

It is bi-folding Peter, so maybe goods were left there with an honesty box.

What a lovely village. I like the little white thatched cottage and the curve on the downhill road with a glimpse of the countryside beyond. Hope you find out about the little door.

Thank you for your kind comments Jean. It's right on the county border, so all the views are of Dorset.

What a lovely village Rosa - it is very picturesque. I like the building with the thatched roof in the PiP. Maybe the little door was for deliveries in the days when milkmen, butchers and bakers made delivery rounds. Beautifully captured and the light is lovely.

Thank you Carol. Yes I think you are right. The good old days ;-))
Take care & have a good day.

Hi Rosa

A very nice picture, and a wonderful puzzle!!!

Being very curious, I found it on 'Streetview', and had a good look. Since there are no other shop like buildings there, I think you could be right!
Or maybe just an entrance to a store room...

Best Wishes, and stay safe!!
Peter

Hi Peter,

Thank you for your kind comments and interest. It's a very small village as you no doubt could see. I think it is for goods to be placed or left out for sale. It reminds me of pubs in the old days, when you could buy from something like this, if you were underage, or getting something for the parents! My dad never drank so I didn't get to use one :-))

Take care and have a good day,
Rosa.

Si que son ventanas atípicas, porque la de arriba parece cierre de guillotina y la de abajo no sé si será abatible o de corredera, aunque esto último lo dudo; en todo caso el asa (pomo) tendría que estar por el interior de la casa, no veo que pudieran abrirlo desde el exterior.

The lower one is bi-folding Jose. I think the top one probably opens inwards and the bottom one for customers. Often an honesty box was left for payment. Many years ago we sold eggs from the house and left them in the porch with an honesty box and it worked very well :-)
Take care & have a good day.

Thank you for making us discover this beautiful rural region full of charms!!!*******

Thank you very much Nouchet. I would like to walk to the next village on from this one, but the restrictions do not allow us to go that far at the moment.

Beautiful rural scene, looking forward to hear more about the farmhouse!

Thank you Volker.
Probably not used anymore but I think it was once used to sell dairy products maybe or eggs.

Wow, what a pretty looking village; like it very much Rosa.

Thank you Jaap. Pleased you like it.

A great series and a LOVELY village, Rosa *************************

Very pleased you like the series Marie-claire. Thank you :)

GLORIOUS PLACE

Thank you Pam.

Two fabulous photos, such a pretty village!

Thank you Gudrun. Very hilly but with lovely views.

Lovely images of this very traditional English village, Rosa. Stay safe.

Thank you George.

What a picturesque place for a ramble, Rosa. Lovely atmosphere!

Thank you Diana.
Take care & have a good day.

Beautiful pictures of a nice walk !

A good but hilly walk Ulrich....once a week maybe ;-)

What a beautiful location Rosa..............the sort of place where you expect to walk round a corner and bump into Miss Marple :-)

I like the view down the hill to the cottages and beyond..........and the little yellow door makes for good foreground interest. I also like the close up view of the white cottage in the PiP.

It's all especially beautiful in the sunshine. Nice work!

Now Keith...is that a coincidence, or have you, like Miss Marple, been doing some detective work!? www.wincantonwindow.co.uk/the-bayford-book-launching-8th-september.htm
Ha ha!! Agatha Christie was apparently a frequent visitor to Stoke Trister :-))

Thank you for all your kind comments. Take care and have a good day.

Ha, ha............I had no idea :-))

When I worked for the Brewery many years ago there was a Pub near Faversham in Kent which had something like this and it was used for Off sales.
or
It might be an ATM Rosalyn, since there is no where open to spend any money they boarded it up ! :-)) But it looks like you had an enjoyable walk.

Yes I remember that too Maurice. Ha ha...good point about the ATM's! I still have a £5 note in my purse from before the lockdown. I'll see how long I can keep it ;-)

... ich mag solche wunderbar abschüssige Straßen ! Grüße MAIK

Thank you MAIK. A once a week walk with all the hills ;-))

Ohhh Rosa !!!
What a lovely walk you're presenting me with!

Winding and hilly for a healthy exercise .-) but, above all, through this village with my beloved typical English cottages /houses and shops so full of charm!

Have very good night!

Thank you for your lovely comments dear Beatrice. Winding and hilly it certainly is...just once a week walk I think ;-))
Take care and have a good day.

Wonderful compositions both Rosa! Really lovely scene with those wonderful cottages, the winding road and the hills covered with the Spring green of the trees and fields.

Enjoy your day and take care.

Thank you very much for your kind comments Doug.

Take care & have a good evening.

I really envy you, Rosalyn ...
HOW BEAUTIFUL !

Thank you Christiane. It is good to have such walks in this lockdown.
I hope you are coping well & wish you a good weekend.
