In the Shadow of the Castle.

In the Shadow of the Castle.
Between the moat, now dry, and the imposing castle walls, lies this thatched cottage. The cottage can also be seen in both PiPs from different angles.
HFF everyone.

Ein sehr romantischer Platz zum leben. In manchen Nächten hört man vielleich sogar das Rasseln der alten Ritterrüstungen und das Wiehern der Pferde aus vergangener Zeit. HFF, Rosalyn und ein schönes Wochenede!

A great series, Rosa. I wonder how old is the cottage, it looks to be somewhat less aged than the castle. HFF and have a good weekend.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to tiabunna club
Thank you George. I would guess the cottage is three to five hundred years old, with a much more recent extension.

What a great place for this beautiful cottage. But it's surprising that at the time of its construction it obtained building permit. HFF Rosalyn.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Christa1004 club
Thank you Christa. I doubt a building permit was required when the cottage was built. It's probably a few hundred years old.

Hi Rosa
A very nice picture, which I like very much!
Wonderful and interesting composition.
I do wonder how that cottage came to be there. Such an unusual place..
Great colours, especially the pink of the cottage!!
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

This photo reminded me of one I took at Pevensey Castle in East Sussex. My immediate reaction, without looking at the location, was that I took a photo of that view. Unfortunately mine was not nearly as picturesque as yours, Rosalyn. That is probably why I didn't upload it with rest of that set.
www.ipernity.com/doc/philsutters/52153214
Anyway it set me looking at the Pevensey album which reminded me of a nice day out with two grandchildren, who used to live near us. So thanks for that.

What a lovely view from the castle. I love that pink thatched cottage. It reminds me of those found in Suffolk.
Belated HFF, Rosa. I hope you are enjoying the week so far.

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Amelia club
Thank you Amelia. Yes I know the ones you mean in Suffolk. The views from the castle are beautiful all around. I will upload some of them sometime soon.

Not too good a start, as my husband is in hospital. Hopefully the week will get better :-)
