When this picture was re-printed in the Herald a quarter of a century ago the caption read: "The bustle of a busy harbour emanates from this scene of the outer basin at Arbroath almost 100 years [125 years] ago. The names of the four or more sizeable sailing ships at the quays are unknown, but the clinker-built sailing skiff in the foreground, 16AH, was the Helen and Anne, owned by Charles Smith. The tripod arrangement on what is now the oiling quay was a type of crane, though what the function of the box-like structure was remains shrouded in the mists of time. The picture is one of a series taken by Captain James Falconer, master of the Arbroath-based schooner 'Dart', which was built at Chepstow in 1826. They were loaned to the Herald by his great-grandson, local skipper Colin Falconer."
The Museum's south doors open onto the Outer Peristyle, the largest garden at the Getty Villa. It is adorned with hedge-lined pathways and circular stone benches. Plants favored by the ancient Romans, such as bay laurel, boxwood, myrtle, ivy, and oleander, are planted around a spectacular 220-foot-long reflecting pool. Bronze sculptures, replicas of statues found at the Villa dei Papiri, are placed in their ancient findspots. A peristyle, or covered walkway, surrounds the formal garden and leads visitors past illusionistic wall paintings to spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean.
All the buildings nearest the church were reserved for the monks; visitors were generally not allowed there. In contrast, the outer court was a more public area, accommodating a wide range of services and storage buildings within a strong perimeter wall. This is an unusually complete example.

Imagine our surprise to find this in an abandoned rural Virginia schoolhouse... This iron bar door was intended to keep something very secure... What did the US military store or do in this room?

Outer Beauty is only a cover and will eventually fade away. By the way these are my yellow Daylilies. Have a great day everyone!! :)
My mother was born in Hythe in Kent. She was evacuated to West Wales during the 2nd World War. She returned to Kent where she did her apprenticeship and returned to Wales and got married there in 1956. I used to visit my grandparents & family in Kent when I was younger. It must be close on 40 years since I visited this area of Folkestone - last time I was there it was a ferry port & hovercraft port.
Every other chain loop (the closest ones have every loop) is pinned out; this is full size. When I have more pins, I'll pin out the rest of the chain loops.
Walking on the Outer Barrier, Hodbarrow, close to Haverigg Lighthouse. The barrier, a mile-and-a-quarter long and forty feet high, is one of many industrial relics in the Millom district. Both barrier and lighthouse date from 1905. The former prevented tidal flooding of haematite ore mines, the latter was an important navigational aid for the many ships that used to dock here and alongside Millom's Salthouse Pool pier.
