A ''Happy fence Friday'' to everyone..... from Dj.....

A  ''Happy fence Friday''  to everyone..... from  Dj.....
A fence alongside an example of 'Derbyshires' dry stone walling surrounds the tiniest of graveyards,. supporting just two memorials - to a man who I feel would probably have been a local farmer of which land he owned, and maybe was entitled to choose his own resting place. The small 'donkey' headstone is enscribed with the memories of his wife.

A most unusual resting place David. Seems a bit strange having a donkey headstone for your wife!!! Either she loved donkeys or he thought his wife was one? Well done.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

A fantastic display of dry-stone walling..............I love the look of them and the detail you've captured. I also like the two small headstones, which a quite beautiful............and I'm guessing that the man's wife may have been a little stubborn when she was alive.

I love the lush green of the grass...........and the wildflowers are beautiful. Well worth viewing large.

Great photography David.
