St Peter's church in Hook Norton is a fine medieval building, Norman in origin (traces remain visible in the chancel) but in appearance belonging mostly to the later Middle Ages with a spacious late 14th century nave and a stately pinnacled Perpendicular west tower from c1500.
The interior is flooded with light, thanks to minimal use of stained glass and white-rendered walls, though we are reminded how different the original effect would have been by the fragmentary 15th century mural over the chancel arch where a pair of angels and male saints (very rustic work) can be seen against a red ground, no doubt originally supporting figures formerly flanking the carved crucifixion group of of the lost rood screen.
The stained glass in the east window is Victorian and nothing special, but that in the south aisle is a far more inspiring piece, a late work by the studio of Morris & Co serving as a WWI memorial.
The most important artefact in the church however is the 11th century font, a cylindrical drum carved with figures in relief, coarse in quality but fascinating in subject, with a group of Adam & Eve with the Tree of Knowledge, followed by several rather pagan-looking figures from the zodiac.
A regional brewery in Hook Norton, Oxfordshire, England. Founded in 1849, this brewing plant in the Cotswolds is a traditional Victorian 'tower' brewery in which all the stages of the brewing process flow from floor to floor - mashing at the top, boiling in the middle, fermentation and racking at the bottom. Until 2006, the brewing process was powered by steam.

Lots of folks I'm glad I ain't-
But mostly Captain Hook!
This was YUGE in case you can't tell by the photo. The bottom of his jacket and his belt were cut off to fit, but that's the only alteration.

The lighthouse on Hook Head, Co Wexford is reputed to be the world's oldest, and among the most beautiful I've seen. Conditions were promising on the evening we were there, and I wanted to make use of the rock pools to compose an image such as this. For a long time, the sun resolutely refused to come out to play, but for a few glorious minutes burst through a gap in the clouds bathing the lighthouse in a fabulous warm evening light
the hook is as old as the art of fishing and often they were made of so many different materials,i saw a pictur ages ago of one found in scandinavia and preserved in a museum,the original was fashioned from walruss ivory,this one i made as a copy of the original but from beef bone.
PROBLEM: I can't keep track of the things that I need.
SOLUTION: Fourth Ave Birkenstock of Ann Arbor has just the solution. Owners Claire and Paul Tinkerhess collected all the supplies they need to help people try on shoes/sandals and put them in one place. They hung two hooks in order to maximize space. On one hook hangs their foot measurer and on the other a bag with test socks. They slide a stool into the remaining space. Nice organizing work Claire and Paul!
HINT: You can apply this principle to keys and purses, lunch bags and backpacks, and leashes and plastic bags.
My family taught on Indian Reservations in Idaho, Oklahoma, Arizona and New Mexico from 1890-1910. These photos were taken by my gr-gr-uncle at a reservation I believe in New Mexico about 1900. If I'm right on location he was most probably of the Apache tribe. How sad what the whites did to the native population of this country. Look at his poor feet.

I was hoping to get the quintessential "hook 'em" photo at the game. A couple of people in front of me get their horns up while the video screen in the background shows the same.
The church of the Good Shepherd at Hook Common is a fairly modest building, opened in 1870 and built to the designs of G.R.Clarke to serve as a chapel of ease for nearby Upton on Severn. The unassuming exterior gives little away, sitting quietly in its roadside setting and would be easily overlooked.
Inside the architecture is equally modest and pleasantly simple, but the finest features here are in the glass, three Arts & Crafts windows in the nave, beginning with the fine west window by Henry Payne along with another made as a collaboration with his son Edward and the last by his pupil Florence Camm.
Happily the church is normally kept open for visitors and is a delightfully peaceful place.
