The view through my lens - Ajith
Anchor Inn (miniature!!)
This is a miniature building made to 1:20 precision! It was taken at Abingdon Miniature Village - Mandurah, Western Australia. There are over 35 individual buildings from all over the UK depicting the different architectural styles from 12th century onwards. Well known buildings such as Anne Hathaway’s Cottage, Red Lion Pub, and the traditional Village Green are all featured.
The buildings and all of their components are hand crafted on site, some of the larger and more intricate buildings taking over 600 hours to complete. A miniature steam train winds its way around the ornamental lake and is activated by an electronic eye on the bridge. Amongst the model settings are dozens of miniature figures. Some are playing cricket on the Village Green, enjoying a pint at the Red Lion, attending the wedding ceremony at St Mary’s Church and many others. The figures are all hand made and painted, requiring repainting every 6 – 12 months. New figures are continually added to make the settings more life like and add a touch of humour.
