Stable Edge on Christmas Day. Dark clouds clung to the tops of the moors all day, but the dale was bathed in sunlight.
Constructed around 1820, the Craigmarloch Stables, now sadly a roofless ruin, were part of a chain of stables for the massive engineering project of the nearby Forth and Clyde Canal, to provide a change of fresh horses to walk along the towpath, hauling barges (on the days before engines were fitted to the boats, and hence why we had the towpaths).
Apparently the first stables were built slightly closer to the canal route here where it passes between Kilsyth and Dullatur, but that land is a bog, and the buildings sank into it, so this neo-classical structure was built just a little further back from the canal, on some slightly raised ground. Once it would have housed numerous horses, with facilities to take care of them and residential spaces for their keepers, but sadly it is now decaying and considered to be an at-risk historic building.

This early 19th century stable block is adjacent to the 12th century Ewenny church and priory, near Bridgend, south Wales.
Originally the stables at Kenilworth Castle, built in the 16th century. Now, this lovely building houses a visitor centre and cafe.
HBM!

This dog seemed quite perturbed when I stopped to photograph this stable(and the large barn next to it). He barked and barked and charged towards the fence to see if he could scare me away. He seemed more bark than bite, so I valiantly stayed for a few shots. : )
I am leaving tomorrow on my first trip out of Ontario in nearly two years, so I'll take a little break in posting images from this series while I'm away. I promise to pick it up again when I get back.
Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada.
If you'd like to see the rest of my series of images of the barns in Prince Edward County, take a look at the album.
As in the previous photo, the object that I have already shown you. But this time there was better light and colors.
The central public transport stop called by the city residents the unicorn stable (you can also see it in the previous photo in the background of the unicorn sculpture).
A simple element of utility architecture that brings a lot of color to the gray of the city.

The inside of this stable is setup for a prewedding party. This was Will and Olivia's wedding. I love the rustic wood.
When we visited Detroit in 2001 we explored Belle Isle Park which is on an island in the river between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. These stables had been designed by the architectural firm Mason & Rice and built for horseback riding in 1894. There was an attempt to revive the tradition in the 1980's but they soon fell again into disrepair. I am not sure if this structure still survives though parts of the stables have been rebuilt.

Working with new gear is inspiring. When it's more portable than the other stuff, it's even nicer. I'm packing up for a short leave and hope to share the photographic results here in a while.
For now I leave you with a rustic image of an old stable belonging to an estate. I really liked the shapes, colours and patina.

ROG 37608 Andromeda in the down sidings replaced 37611. I always seem to miss these being fired up to go and rescue some failed train. Just disapearing towards London on Monday when I arrived.

The Moon Cannot Be Stolen
A Zen Master lived the simplest kind of life in a little hut at the foot of a mountain. One evening, while he was away, a thief sneaked into the hut only to find there was nothing in it to steal.
The Zen Master returned and found him. "You have come a long way to visit me," he told the prowler, "and you should not return empty handed. Please take my clothes as a gift." The thief was bewildered, but he took the clothes and ran away.
The Master sat naked, watching the moon. "Poor fellow," he mused, " I wish I could give him this beautiful moon."
Lacryma; with its rolling plains and temperate climate, has become famous for the quality of the horses bred there. In the settlement of Elizabethville, many stables have been established to house both the equines and their human companions.

They're both modes of transportation. You can love them both, but one you love like your device and the other you love like your brother.
