Canterbury Stour at Westgate Gardens
Polariser filter on camera
The house on the left has been surrounded by scaffolding for about 2 years whilst being renovated, and as it is a Listed building, the materials used must be the same as when it was built - the pointing is light coloured because lime and sand mortar must be used.
It looks new, but it is not - just very well restored
The Westgate was constructed from Kentish ragstone around 1377. It is attributed to Henry Yevele but was commissioned by Archbishop Simon of Sudbury. Its twin drum towers are 60 feet high and was built to be as pleasing from the rear as from the front. It is also worthy to note that there was incredible foresight in its construction in that is just manages to allow for the passage of a South bound double-decker Stage Coach bus!
