With the sun rapidly going down, the last shot of the day catches GBRf Shed 66769 crossing the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in Skipton as it heads along the Rylstone branch with the 11.32 ex Hull Dairycoates (6D72).
It's unlikely a train enthusiast inhabits the rather nice dwelling between the canal and Keighley Road - if so, the dining room would surely be facing the other way?

This cliff dwelling was built by people of the Gallina culture who lived in north central New Mexico from around 1000 to 1275 CE. They did not appear to mix with the ancient puebloans of Chaco Canyon and Mesa Verde. Interestingly, nearly all skeletons of the Gallina people that have been found show signs of having been murdered.

2016.03.28 Noszvaj, Hungary
The Bükkalja region is awash with volcanic rhyolite tuff, and locals have made use of the porous rock for centuries. Besides wine cellars, people have carved out caves for livestock, food storage and of course as homes. At one point 30% of Noszvaj’s population lived in these types of residences. 40 cave homes were still inhabited as late as 1970.
Every time I go past these old houses I have to shoot them because there is always something different going on with that mountain behind them!
The Clapboard structure was one of ten houses that were originally built in Eureka, Colorado, but when the Sunnyside Mine went bankrupt in 1948, the Idarado Mining Company purchased the homes and moved them to the Red Mountain location. The dwellings were remodeled and used to house Idarado Mine employees. From 1948-1978, a total of twelve families lived in the homes until the mining ran out. When the homes were moved not all of the Million Dollar Highway was paved.

Amsterdam - Buiksloterdijk (Waterlandse Zeedijk).
Buiksloot was a separate municipality until 1921, when it was merged with Amsterdam.
In the 17th century a part of the village was a popular place to live for retired captains because of the - then still - wide view of shipping on the river IJ and the Zuiderzee (sea). That is why it is also called the 'Captains' Heaven'.
Vanaf de 17e eeuw werd Buiksloot een geliefde pleisterplaats voor schippers van de Amsterdamse handelsvloot. Kapiteins die een goed salaris kregen of flink bijverdienden door privé-handel, investeerden hier in een chique huis om hun oude dag in te slijten. Daarom werd dit deel van het dorp - net als vergelijkbare bebouwing aan de Nieuwendammerdijk- in de volksmond "de Kapiteinshemel" genoemd.
I've read about cave dwelling but seeing it, touching it, climbing into the cave, it was a wonderful experience.
The Ancestral Pueblo people lived here in Bandelier National Monument from approximately 1150 CE to 1550 CE. They built homes carved from the volcanic tuff. The Monument is 50 square miles (130 km2) of the Pajarito Plateau, on the slopes of the Jemez Volcanic field in the Jemez Mountains.
Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. I very much appreciate it.
What used to be called a Chocolate Box Cottage (as scenes like this would often be used on boxes of chocolates in the UK). Thatched house in the beautiful hamlet of Charlton, West Sussex, UK.
A multiple dwelling unit that looks a bit disheveled. My viewer who fancies powerlines and wires should love this one. And how did the metalwork below the second story windows get go so awry? The pink paint job also looks a bit tawdry.
Check out the hand rails on the front door stairs. Canadian innovation of V-shaped rails will not catch on internationally. And the stairs themselves ain't so great for winter and people a bit long in the tooth.
In short, I love this place and would like to see the interior.
I took photos of this build a while back but haven't been able to do any editing. After about a year I decided to just post it as is

BANDELIER NATIONAL MONUMENT NEW MEXICO
Lower cliff wall dwellings were constructed by expanding the natural voids in the soft volcanic tuff walls of the canyon. The horizontal holes in the wall were used for anchoring both roof and floor timber support beams. Carved petroglyphs are visible in the top center of the image.

People who sleep walk needed to be wary-i've never heard archeologists suggest the Anastazi succumbed to falling deaths, but I suppose they've looked at the bottom of the cliff to see if there were piles of bones.
You need to have a local guide to access the valley floor and half a day or more to do it.
