National Trust, Colby Woodland Garden, Amroth. We have not visited this NT property before but look forward to returning for autumn colour. There are many woodland walks which would be very enjoyable for autumn colour and bluebells in the spring!
In Transsylvania, churches served as fortresses at the same time and were walled and fortified. Most of them can be visited nowadays on arrangement. The one at Cincsor is one of the better preserved.

Ok, why not !
It would appear that quite unintentionally I have begun a little impromptu series of "Wall" pictures.
So ok. Let's post yet another wall.
OLYMPUS PEN Lite 6
With art worthy of any museum in the world, the wall of Buckskin Gulch is admired by Moment’s Notice. As with Paria Canyon into which it flows, Buckskin Gulch is composed of Navajo Sandstone, deposited as massive sand dunes 200 million years ago. Water has carved what is considered the longest slot canyon in the Colorado Plateau (and perhaps anywhere), approximately 12 miles/ 19 km long, as narrow as 4 feet/ 1.2 m wide, with walls as high as 500 feet/ 150 m. Wind, water, and gravity have sculpted the canyon walls into beautiful forms and textures, with desert varnish adding some lovely streaks, illuminated here by sunlight reflected from the adjacent wall.
A three photo stitch.. light was fading fast as we headed back down but Skiddaw was still catching that golden light :-)
Stoodley Pike
The route back down from Stoodley Pike takes you along by the walls that partially surround the ruins of Red Dykes Farm. One of several farms that were abandoned after the building of Withens Clough reservoir.
The photo could have been better, the light is a bit weird as the shot was taken straight into the sun as it was starting to get low.
Photo of the farm taken on a previous occasion, also in better weather is in the comments box.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
This spot is known to have been coastline at 7 & 17 million years ago. The fossils are clearly two different ages- the younger ones crumble in your hand.
In this shot taken on the fells above Elter Water you can see stone walls and a fence together. It is easy to see why modern farmers use fences instead of walls if replacing a wall costs £270 per metre. Fences take less time to erect, are movable and cheaper. However they fall down more easily and the posts rot. I think that the dry stone walls of the upland pastures have become part of the landscape. Some are centuries old. Look at the mosses and lichens which live on them and the wildlife, mice etc which live in them. They have their own ecology. I am for the walls. What do you think?
The lake at Waller Mill Park in Williamsburg, Virginia. #WallerMillPark #WilliamsburgVirginia #Virginia
I spotted this beautiful work of art, the wall and the butterfly, on one of my walks the other day.
