Found this fallen boundary/gatepost near Riviere Cottages in Hayle Cornwall. It is inscribed with a raised R in a panel. Any advice on what it signifies gratefully received.
The death toll includes 960,000 Jews (865,000 of whom were gassed on arrival), 74,000 ethnic Poles, 21,000 Roma, 15,000 Soviet prisoners of war, and up to 15,000 other Europeans. Those not gassed died of starvation, exhaustion, disease, individual executions, or beatings. Others were killed during medical experiments
On top of a treated pine gatepost in a suburban park, in the golden morning light, a tiny round brown bird bounces up, ready to take off. The bird is possibly some sort of robin?

Gatepost - the only remaining sign of the first mental asylum in Melbourne - The Yarra Bend Asylum. Opened 1848. By 1870 had 1043 patients.Closed in 1925. In Melbourne "going around the bend" means going mad as patients travelled up the river and around the bend.

Focusing isn't as tight as I'm used to - I was trying to get next door's cat in focus! Still - nice wood grain.
2-ply, worsted-weight yarn wool , spun on my Journey Wheel, from drum-carded batts. 72" x 8-1/2", 400 yards of yarn knit. "Gateposts" design from Barbara Walker's 4-th Treasury of Knitting Patterns, page 178. US size 8 needles. Although not truly reversible, it is textured enough to look good when worn on either side :-)
Part of the old track leading out of the farm enclosures on to the open moor at Fox Tor Mire. An evocative place.
The gateposts of Churchill Barracks, which were constructed adjacent to the Citadel Fort in Ayr in 1794. They were successively home to the 21st (Royal North British) Fusiliers, the Royal Scots Fusiliers and the Royal Highland Fusiliers before finally closing in 1965. The gateposts have been reduced in height but the plaque which explains this does not say whether they were cut down or whether the level of the surrounding ground has been raised.
Gateposts tipped almost over by the very literal weight of the moor, the slow creep of the hillside above on it's journey back to the sea.
This type of gatepost ornamentation is fairly common in the Glossop and New Mills area. These examples are in the wall of a Bungalow on Marsh Lane in New Mills. I expect that they are a product of the Glossop Brick works.
Holy Trinity, Rayleigh, Essex
I was way down south-east in the suburbs of Southend. I'm not saying they are dull, but they are the kind of place one might use in a warning to ones teenaged children - "If you don't behave yourself, we're moving to the suburbs of Southend" or some such. However, I knew my first church would be open because it says so on their website, and in what might have seemed at first sight an unpromising area I visited fourteen churches, nine of which were open, and two others had a keyholder notice.
So, first of all to Holy Trinity, Rayleigh. A sign in the lychgate said 'Church Open' and the outer doors were hooked back.
This is a wide church on a busy road. In the Essex fashion, the aisles go all the way up to the east end of the chancel, making the view from the east most attractive, the chancel and north aisle gables and the south aisle castellated, and especially lovely with the working windmill just beyond the west of the church.
Stepping inside, the church was full of warm light, with hardly any coloured glass. The east end was substantially rebuilt, but the nave aisles and arcades are really good 14th Century work, including what might be the masons names lettered on the south arcade.
The interior is pretty well all 20th century, but seemly and fitting for Anglican worship. There were three old people serving coffee in the corner, but they didn't interfere other than to say hello.
There is a vast 1980s extension to the north, as big as the original church, and all in all it had the feel of a well-kept and busy town church. I liked it.

The swans atop these gateposts (leading to Nottington House which was demolished during the 1960's) now adorn the gateposts of a house just around the corner where the owners of the big house moved to.
