West Lulworth Country Trail leading back down to Lulworth village and Lulworth Cove, Dorset, England, situated on the English Channel. Taken on our walk back from Durdle Door and Man O' War Bay.
The large sloping field at the bottom is the car park.
Logo to follow for the West Lulworth Country Trail on the fence post.
HFF everyone :)
The red signal is down on Porthmadog Station as we wait patiently for the steam train to arrive. The Welsh town of Porthmadog is mostly located within Snowdonia National Park and with the beautiful Snowdonia mountain ranges and Cambrian Coastline, this must be one of the prettiest stations in Wales.
HFF and have a great BH weekend everyone :)
Shelter - Swanage Pier in evening light, I love the intricate detail of this old pier. This Victorian pier is over 100 years old

Taken yesterday as I left the beach after my usual visit to get exercise. I am very thankful to have the beach on my doorstep as we are not allowed to drive anywhere for exercise during lockdown.

Taking a good sunrise photo without filter is a big challenge. This image costs me about one hour processing to what it is now. Removing flare (most on the fench) was the hardest part.
I love those moments, been there, a fresh nose and silence.

yes, one of my favorite subjects, benches and fenches...well no fench here, but a bench...okay it is raining, it is cold and I am digging through the archives and of course, I go for the bench having no good fench unless I go out in the rain...no, well maybe. So HBW!

My lovely big brother treated me to a great day out at the Gladstone Museum which is the only complete Victorian pottery factory with original workshops, bottle ovens, tile gallery and the Doctor's House. This 'pot bank' is typical of those once common in the North Staffordshire area of England from the time of the industrial revolution in the 18th century to the mid 20th century.
A Bottle Oven is a type of intermittent kiln for firing pottery. Coal fired using local long-flamed coal. Oil has also been used to fire bottle ovens. The open double doors seen in the shot are the entrance to one of the ovens/kilns, an incredible thing to view and walk around on the inside with numerous fireplaces situated around the bottom of the kiln itself. The saggars can be seen stacked up against the wall of the oven. The saggar is filled and stacked up inside the oven. It helps to protect the ware it contains from contamination by kiln combustion gases and ashes, and the action of the flames.
What is a saggar maker's bottom knocker?
Producing saggars to the correct specifications required was a skilled job and needs a craftsman - the saggar maker. However, making the bases of the saggars is a less skilled job which can be left to a lesser craftsman, namely the saggar maker's bottom knocker, who makes the bottom of the saggar by placing clay in a metal hoop and literally knocking it into shape.
I'm proud of our wonderful industrial history and all the amazingly skilled and talented people involved in making it so. This includes some of my own family, now long gone but remembered with great pride, joy and above all, love :)

... they are important, wonderful, filled with magic, can be everywhere, unspectacular, but will be always in our mind.
I wish you such moments this week end, dear friends. It needs not a lot of money to be happy : )
I hope the barrier tape counts as a fence, but isn't it the meaning of the tape? So I will a have a fench : )
