This was built in the early 19th century as a folly. The bedroom, living room and kitchen are in the hexagonal part of the building. The rectangular section is just for the staircase and toilet.

 

During World War 2, after the Germans invaded Jersey, they added a third floor and turned it into a look-out post. There's several bunkers very near by.

The third floor has horizontal slits for the look-out. The ceiling has the compass points N, S, O (i.e. Ost), W painted on it, and radian degree markings from 0 to 6400.

 

After the war it largely remained derelict until it was purchased and refurbished by the Landmark Trust. I met the previous owner who said farm workers used to use it, including a French man who called himself "Chef de la Tour"!

Chastleton House was built between 1607 and 1612, for Walter Jones, who had made his fortune from the law, although his family were originally Welsh wool merchants. The estate was bought in 1604 from Robert Catesby, although his residence was demolished to make way for the new house and no traces of the original building on this spot remain. The house is built of Cotswold stone, around a small courtyard, called the Dairy Court.

 

Chastleton House is famous for an episode from the English Civil War in which a loyal wife duped (and drugged) Roundhead soldiers to save her husband.

Union Trust Building. 501 Grant Street, Pittsburgh

 

According to Wikipedia, the building was originally called the Union Arcade when developed by Pittsburgh's very own coal and steel magnate Henry Clay Frick in 1916. In 1923, the Union Trust Company bought the building and remodelled the lower four floors, removing the 240 shops that formed the "arcade" of the commercial high-rise.

 

The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

INS46 Trust in the Old Harbour at Lossiemouth. Not as old as some of the others, think the transom stern dates its build to the early Seventies.

 

This National Trust property is famous for being the ancestral home of the first USA President, George Washington. In fact, Washington DC takes it names from the very village where this building still stands.

It rather lucky that it does stand because it very nearly ended up being demolished, so run down had it become.

By the 19th century, the hall had been divided up into tenement flats and in the years that followed, gradually fell into a state of disrepair. Finally, in 1936, the building was declared to be unfit for human habitation. Luckily, it was saved from being bulldozed by a local school teacher by the name of Fred Hill. Fred formed a group which became known as the 'Friends of Washington Old Hall', whose aims were to save and preserve the building.

Restoration work began, and although it was halted during Word War II, it was finally completed in 1955.

A couple of years later, the National Trust took over management of the building.

Chauncey reclines on the trunk of a fallen tree. She was a little nervous when I first put her up there, settled once I had her lay down. She is filthy black, so I did it in B & W to hide her dirtiness:o) It was so sandy that within minutes she was black.

I've mentioned it before, but to me, the relationship of the coastal brown bear and the shorebirds is an amazing one. Here you have the brown bear - a fierce predator - determined during the month of September to eat their fill before the long winter. Then you have the shorebird - simply looking for any and all scraps that are left behind. So it is quite convenient for the shorebird to "hang around" the bear. I do, however, wonder how they know that they are safe from the jaws & claws of this bear - many times bigger and immensely more powerful.

 

Nevertheless, by the look on this bear's face, he seems to be quite content with the bird's company - almost offering up a smile or grin - while the shorebird passes by.......

  

Waddesdon Manor was built by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild (of the famous banking family) between 1874 and 1885 to display his collection of arts and to entertain the fashionable world. It is managed by the Rothschild Foundation, a family charitable trust, on behalf of the National Trust, which took over ownership in 1957.
