In fact an oil lamp bracket. The bracket is on the footbridge at Danzey station and dates from GWR days when the station had no gas or electricity and the only lighting was from Tilley lamps.
The train approaching is the 172332 with the 11.56 Stourbridge Junction to Stratford-upon-Avon service.
This was my last pre-lockdown picture.

Designer; Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin
About 1851
Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, Missouri
"Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin was the most important promoter and designer of the mid-1800's revival of the Gothic style. In 1846, Pugin was hired to oversee the the furnish of the houses of Parliament, where this bracket clock was originally installed. He used plaster casts of well-known English and French Gothic architectural features as inspiration for the motifs of vines, trefoils, ribbons, and beveled corners. These elements added a dynamic composition to the restrained clock form."
It pleased me as an engineer to see something functional in an art museum. I often think that there is impressive beauty in functional things that are well done. The most obvious of example of this would be classic cars, but other things like clocks can be works of art too.
Spotted these cool looking fungi growing up the trunk of a tree in a wooded area of the lake. They were above my head. I flipped the photos to get a better look. They remind me a bit of stacks of french toast.

At last a chance to get out with my camera for a few hours! Between storms and commitments, I have not been able to be out and about for a few weeks. So it was with relish that I set off the capture some early morning shots around the docks of Belfast.

Pléchatel : falaise de schiste taillée pour permettre la méditation. Elle fut taillé au 19ième siècle par le curé de Pléchatel pour donner du travail aux gens.
A rusty bracket fixed to the river wall below Tilbury B power station, with a slightly less rusty length of chain that I assume retained something which is no longer there, leading me to believe the bracket and chain, both, have failed in their (probably only) purpose.
Worse, the power station is no longer there, having served its purpose...
Unless it's an art installation ?

Blushing Bracket / daedaleopsis confragosa. Cloud Wood, Leicestershire. 14/03/20.
This is a very common bracket fungus, especially here in the East Midlands. It can be found all year round and old fruiting bodies can last in situ, for several years. I think they become more attractive as they age, because the once pale upper surfaces turn orange then rich reddish-brown tones in old age.

Growing on an old tree stump. Isabella Plantation, Richmond Park, London.
Help in identifying is appreciated.
Large bracket or shelf fungi are common in mature forests. Some of their fruiting bodies may grow for many years on the trunks of living or dead trees. Their upper surface is leathery or woody. Like the boletes, they have pores on their undersides. When conditions are favourable, those brackets that grow from one year to the next produce a layer of new tubes on their lower surface, from which spores are released.
nrhp # 80001100- Jenkins County Courthouse is a historic county courthouse in Millen, Georgia. Designed in a Neoclassical Revival architecture style by L.F. Goodrich, it was built in 1910.[2] Unlike most courthouses in Georgia of the period, this one is three stories tall. It has columns that are plain and fluted, which are on high bases. The building has a bracketed cornice. On top is a copper-domed clock tower. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 18, 1980.

Took a walk in the woods today. A beautiful day completely alone on the trail. Would have been perfect if my thoughts had stayed home. Congaree Creek Heritage Preserve, Cayce, SC near Columbia
