INS46 Trust in the Old Harbour at Lossiemouth. Not as old as some of the others, think the transom stern dates its build to the early Seventies.
This National Trust property is famous for being the ancestral home of the first USA President, George Washington. In fact, Washington DC takes it names from the very village where this building still stands.
It rather lucky that it does stand because it very nearly ended up being demolished, so run down had it become.
By the 19th century, the hall had been divided up into tenement flats and in the years that followed, gradually fell into a state of disrepair. Finally, in 1936, the building was declared to be unfit for human habitation. Luckily, it was saved from being bulldozed by a local school teacher by the name of Fred Hill. Fred formed a group which became known as the 'Friends of Washington Old Hall', whose aims were to save and preserve the building.
Restoration work began, and although it was halted during Word War II, it was finally completed in 1955.
A couple of years later, the National Trust took over management of the building.

Chauncey reclines on the trunk of a fallen tree. She was a little nervous when I first put her up there, settled once I had her lay down. She is filthy black, so I did it in B & W to hide her dirtiness:o) It was so sandy that within minutes she was black.

I've mentioned it before, but to me, the relationship of the coastal brown bear and the shorebirds is an amazing one. Here you have the brown bear - a fierce predator - determined during the month of September to eat their fill before the long winter. Then you have the shorebird - simply looking for any and all scraps that are left behind. So it is quite convenient for the shorebird to "hang around" the bear. I do, however, wonder how they know that they are safe from the jaws & claws of this bear - many times bigger and immensely more powerful.
Nevertheless, by the look on this bear's face, he seems to be quite content with the bird's company - almost offering up a smile or grin - while the shorebird passes by.......
"Then we had set up last night, you had told me your story, and there was a little more to trust from you...And then what happened this morning...Instead of saving yourself and running...you come back for me...You kept close, you kept me safe, you didn't think to leave me behind...and you were willing to kill to save us both...That was what made me realize you deserved my trust. That you would protect me..."

Waddesdon Manor was built by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (of the famous banking family) between 1874 and 1885 to display his collection of arts and to entertain the fashionable world. It is managed by the Rothschild Foundation, a family charitable trust, on behalf of the National Trust, which took over ownership in 1957.
Yo mate, this is all safe, just don't look at the gaps!
This structure is a safety ladder on the edge of a quai in Kiel-Holtenau. Never mind the rust and gaps, it's all secure, trust me!
