The historic Church of St Peter and St Paul in North Curry, a village in Somerset, England. It's a prominent medieval parish church often called the "Cathedral of the Moors" due to its impressive size and grandeur relative to the surrounding low-lying Somerset Levels landscape.The church is Grade I listed by Historic England, The main structure visible today dates primarily from around 1300, featuring elements like the lower tower stages, transepts, and nave in a transitional Norman-to-Gothic style.

BA 220, (Spindrift) Prawn Trawler tied up in Girvan Harbour.
Built: Launched on 22 August 1974 by Alexander Noble & Sons Ltd in Girvan, Scotland (a respected local boatyard known for building sturdy wooden or composite fishing vessels). The prefix BA is for the port of Ballantrae down the coast.

Hopefully a HFF and good weekend to all

Back to 2023 for this shot of Davaar Island, Campbeltown Loch!
Davaar Island is a small tidal island located at the mouth of Campbeltown Loch, off the east coast of the Kintyre Peninsula in Argyll and Bute, western Scotland. It's connected to the mainland by a natural shingle causeway called the Dhorlin, which is exposed at low tide, allowing visitors to walk across—typically taking around 30–40 minutes each way.
