Bruton, Somerset
A very narrow road in Bruton that has made the news several times when lorries using a sat-nav have become stuck in the very narrow opening! The notice says - Don't try your luck...you will only get stuck!

High on the hill is Bruton Dovecote, a limestone tower that was built around the 15th century. The structure was once used as a dovecote, and may have been a watchtower prior to this for Bruton Abbey.

A PiP showing a sign outside a pub just around the corner on the High Steet!!

Great shot with perfect framing. Love the pub sign - I would guess that a slate for the beer would not be allowed;0)

Best wishes, Doug

That must have been a largish dovecote! Lorries using cheap sat-navs intended for cars only are always running into trouble, I don't know how often I've seen them having to back out of our street because they didn't manage the next corner;-)
That will be many pints then until the apocalypse!

I don't know how they even get that far along the road Gudrun! The road down to it is narrow with a big bend...then there is no way out!! Which reminds me of the apocalypse! Could someone bang their heads together!!!!
