Ring My Bell (PiP) HFF!

Ring My Bell (PiP)   HFF!
The Isle of Whithorn Parish Church, Church of Scotland. Built in 1844 and formerly a Free Kirk, it is situated on the old boatyard. The PiP shows the Ashlar bell cloche and you can see the string attached to enable the bell to be rung.

Surprising to see a church with boatyard instead of graveyard! HFF and a great New Year, Carol!

Ecobird club has replied to Dimas Sequeira club
Yes it is Dimas, but then I have been a little surprised to see graveyards in unexpected places like close to the sea and seemingly with no church to be seen for miles. There must be a good reason I imagine though. Many thanks and have a lovely weekend. Happy New Year to you too.

Excellent capture, like the blue rope for bell ringing (pip),
and the sail on Hagar the Horrible looks to be time expired,
HFF and a great weekend.
5 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Thank you very much Roger. Yes the blue string made me laugh, - very high tech! I have seen soap on a ropes with more substantial looking rope. Ha ha! It does look as by the tatty bit of sail that Hagar has had a horrible time of it lately! HFF and have a lovely weekend

A well composed HFF shot, Carol. I love the strong contrast of the black and white church. I love also the lines of yachts leading the eye into the frame. HFF and a fantastic weekend to you. Cheers, Joe

Ha-ha Maurice. I was sorely tempted to ring the doorbell myself, - and then run away. Then I remembered my running days are sadly well and truly over!!! Happy New Year to you.
