The Union Inn at Saltash Waterside near Plymouth situated under the Isambard Kingdom Brunel and Tamar Bridge in Cornwall. A unique setting with the Union Jack Flag painted over the front of the building makes it a worthwhile visit along the River Tamar. This image was taken on Christmas Day 2019 during a foggy morning between the two counties of Devon and Cornwall.
The Castle Inn is one of just 60 pubs owned by the National Trust and is independently run by new landlord Nick Naismith. The first mention of the inn dates as far back as 1420, making this building a true example of a traditional English pub. Period features are abundant creating a warm welcoming environment for locals and visitors alike.
Yesterday my quest for fall scenes took me north to the village of Alton, which included a hike to the Millcroft Inn. A few red leaves are visible behind the inn. In the foreground, a school of large trout are just barely visible. When they got a little closer to where I was standing, they spotted me and fled for deeper water.

Occupying a former textile mill, this upscale, ivy-clad hotel dates from the 19th century and is set in 100 acres of woodland overlooking Shaws Creek.

Roast for lunch today.
We used to eat out quite often, but now we can only go to places the OH is familiar or comfortable with. And a Toby Inn is just about OK. Although he did nearly have a melt down when he couldn't see any carrots, but never fear, a fresh dish of carrots was brought out, and he calmed down :)))
And all I think is, wouldn't it be nice if the only thing I had to worry about, was whether there were carrots or not :(
Redux versions of the 6067 Guarded Inn, 6023 Maiden's Cart, 6040 Blacksmith Shop, 6041 Armor Shop sets (second photo). The 6067 Guarded Inn and 6023 Maiden's Cart sets from the Lego Castle range, both released in 1986, are truly representative of what is meant by "Classic Castle". The Guarded Inn is one of those models specially designed to be built into the wall of a castle, which makes it very special and a little quirky when standing alone. The Lady's car is quite unique because it's a pleasure vehicle and not like the rest of the time peasant carts, transport of equipment and weapons or prison wagon. Here are my own versions using modern parts and techniques with the vintage style.

The abandoned Downtown Inn, in downtown Helena, Arkansas. It's been closed for several years, with tall weeds sprouting in the parking lot.
I'm having another dabble with film photogrpahy and am still at the stage of deciding which emulsion(s) I prefer. This is Ilford Pan F in a Mamiya RZ67 Pro. 110mm lens with a graduated orange filter. Lab processed then scanned on my Canoscan 9000 with minimal work done in Lightoom.
(21/365). This old building is called the Stage Coach Inn, and started out life as a stage stop along the Chisholm Trail after the cattle drives tapered off and the stage coaches started rolling. It was originally located on top of a bluff just south of Brushy Creek (see the round Rock photo a few photos back), but road widening has forced its move to a location next to the Sansom House, in what will eventually become a pubic park on the north side of the creek. Private funds were raised for the move, and more is sought for some interior renovation. For 119 pictures in 2019, #19, "Chimneys".

Last night the Catamount Tavern was packed full of angry farmers and disgruntled landowners, who like me, had purchased grants of land from the governor of New Hampshire, but now the governor of New York was completely disregarding our deeds, and was trying to evict us all forcefully from our homes.
I got up from the crowded bar, and signaled to my brother, Ira Allen, and my cousins Seth Warner and Remember Baker, as well as my good friend Deacon Clay. We all withdrew to a back room, and pulled up stools to a table. The pot-belly stove behind us was not lit, as it was a warm night. Seth and Ira rested their muskets against the side of the wall, and I laid my loaded pistol on the table. We wanted to be prepared for any intrusion of the henchmen of New York's governor.
Deacon Clay pulled out a sheet of parchment, as well as a inkwell and a quill pen. Seth and I began to dictate a charter for all of the landholders to follow, as well as a call for a lawful assembliment of a local militia. We spent several hours in the backroom, Seth and I talking, Deacon writing away, and Remember and Ira interjecting every few minutes with a thought of their own. When we had finished it to our satisfaction, Deacon picked it up and handed it to Ira, who was considered a good orator. He walked out into the main room, and stood up on a table and asked for silence. The once rowdy crowd quieted down, and Ira began,"We here, landholder's of New Hampshire land do rightfully declare that we will not furthermore take any abuse from the unjust governor of New York, and if we are forcefully evicted from our lands we will resist with the formation of a local militia, called the Green Mountain Boys!" The crowd erupted with cheers, Ira finished reading the document, and it was then passed around to be signed by everyone there. Then a vote was taken to elect a leader for the militia and I was chosen. Remember, Ira and Seth where also elected for military command as well. We all sat down and talked long into the night, planning for the future...

Well, I attempted to be a little like Mark Of Falworth with the next segment in this series coming shortly after the first, but alas, I don't think I am as quite as fast as ol' Mark, who manages to churn out impressive MOC after MOC in just a matter of hours.
I also have found out that making minifigures not look akaward and unnatural when seated is a next to impossible, yet I think my stool designed pulled it off well enough.
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this one too, not quite as detailed as the first, and unfortunately the stove is hidden from view.
Enjoy and God Bless!
The Spaniards Inn in Hampstead is mentioned in Dracula. During one part where Van Helsing & Dr. Seward are investigating the child attacks in Hampstead, they catch a hansom cab near The Spaniards Inn.
This type of film requires a filter for colour balance, as it will result in a blueish tone like this.
I think the look of this type of film reminds me of the colour tinting look in silent cinema.
The blueish look in this shot makes me think of the day-for-night technique used in Murnau's Nosferatu (the section on the ship), which turned 100 in 2022 (I took this in November last year).

A Mid 19th century Inn, probably incorporating 1771 fabric.
Architectural Note:
"The Ship Inn retains interest for its overall survival and prominent harbour-side location. The lower building adjoining to the south and now part of The Ship Inn, was previously separately listed as the Old Fish House. Its appearance (now drastically altered) was that of a traditional mid 19th century rubble cottage with gable toward the harbour. Its John Street elevation included a 'piended dormer loft door and brick fish curing tower with ventilators'. "

Today's History Lesson features the historic Mission Inn in Riverside California.
"From its modest beginnings as a 12-room adobe boarding house to its current stature consisting of 239 guest rooms, the Mission Inn Hotel has been the keystone of Downtown Riverside since 1876. In the late 1800’s wealthy easterners and Europeans flocked to Riverside in search of a warmer winter climate along with the desire to invest in the area’s profitable citrus industry. By the 1890’s Riverside was the richest city per capita in the United States."
I really wished I would have gotten a shot of the interior courtyard, but by the time we drove out there our lunch break was about to end.

I chose to revamp the set 6067 Guarded Inn, originally released in 1986.
My third entry to this years CCC. Short story:
Keeler built up more stores in a haunted inn belonging to his friend. When he returned the ghosts had stolen them all away.

As you can read I'm too busy building to write a good story, already built six entries!

The London Inn
4 St John's Street, Stamford, Lincolnshire PE9
Now I wished I had zoomed in and made a photo of the two lively blokes!
For a few moments after dinner, the sun came out and Stamford was dripping wet and sunny at the same time. But the sunny break was very brief, as heavy downpour returned once more! English weather is truly very unpredictable and crazy!
The Fleece Inn is a public house in Bretforton, in the Vale of Evesham, Worcestershire, England:
The half-timbered building, over six hundred years old, has been a pub since 1848, and is now owned by the National Trust. The inn was extensively damaged by fire on 27 February 2004, and after repairs and rebuilding were completed the Fleece officially reopened on 18 June 2005.
Owned by the National Trust, The Fleece Inn was originally built in the early 15th century as a longhouse (an early type of farmhouse accommodating both livestock and humans) by a prosperous yeoman farmer called Byrd. It later became a pub, which was rebuilt in the 17th century and remained in the Byrd family until 1977, when Lola Taplin bequeathed it to the National Trust. Lola was a direct descendant of Mr Byrd, and lived her entire life at the Fleece. She died at 77, having run the pub on her own for the last 30 years of her life.
The Inn suffered serious fire damage after a fire broke out in the thatch in February 2004, and the business temporarily moved to a nearby barn during the 14 month long restoration.
Reputedly Oliver Cromwell’s pewter dinner service was exchanged on the way to the battle of Worcester and this is on display at the pub. Even if this account is not true, it is an example of 17th century Jacobean English Pewter ware.[citation needed]
A curious medieval tradition also survives at the Fleece, preserved in accordance with Lola's wishes. This is the practice of chalking "witch circles" on the floor in front of each hearth to prevent witches from getting in through the chimneys.
There are also "witch marks" on the inside of the door, to keep evil spirits out
