Boot arch in the Alabama Hills in Lone Pine California. A bit harder to find than most of the features but worth the trek
Boot’s Folly, Strines Tower or Sugworth Tower was built in 1927 by Charles Boot the son of the founder of local construction company Henry Boot PLC. Henry Boot & Sons was founded in 1886 and helped by the success of civil building contracts and building camps for the military during the 1914-18 war the company was floated on the London Stock Exchange in 1919. It’s no surprise therefore that around Sheffield and surrounding areas the family is well known and a number of local builds have been constructed by the company, owned by the family and lived in by the various descendants of Henry Boot.
The tower was built out of the leftover stone from the construction of Bents House nearby. The stone was obtained by the demolition of Bents Farm, Pears House Farm and Nether Holes Farm all of which were apparently demolished because they were polluting local watercourses. Either it was commissioned by Charles Boot to provide work for some of his construction workers during the Great Depression, and/or to allow him to see the church yard at High Bradfield where his wife had been buried the year before (1926). Either way the tower is now derelict and has sadly lost its wood panelled interior and fittings – including a spiral staircase since a cow managed to climb it and get stuck in the tower.

Im Hafen von Essaouira liegen die blauen Boote dicht an dicht. Essaouira ist eine alte Hafenstadt mit einer schönen Altstadt in Marokko und liegt am Atlantik.
Sonnenuntergang am Hopfensee. Was liegt näher als für den Vordergrund ein Boot zu suchen, was mir dann auch glückte und ich gut in Szene setzten konnte.
Boot Arch in the Alabama Hills is 3 1/2 feet tall and 4 1/2 feet wide. The rock pillar in which it is found is 12 feet tall and 11 1/2 feet wide. Lone Pine Peak is framed in this view of the arch.
It is fun to explore back roads in the Bear Lake Valley. We sometimes visit this boot fence to see how well it made it through the winter. Every year the fence and the boots sag a little bit more.
I wanted to post this photo on Fenced Friday, but a wind storm knocked out our power for several hours, so here it is a day late. HFF.
