Laura’s Tower, Shrewsbury Castle. Lucky Laura. #laurastowershrewsbury #laurastower #shrewsburycastle #thomastelford #18thcentury #18thcarchitecture

This strange little denizen of Shrewsbury makes me smile every time I see it. I’ve got absolutely no idea what it’s doing here - or even what it is - but I know I like it! #shrewsbury #shrewsburytown #mardol #waterspout #gargoyle #wtfisthat

Attingham Park, servants wing, in the autumn sunshine. The symmetry in this place is just 👌 #attinghampark #attingham #18thcentury #18thc #18thcenturyarchitecture #nationaltrust #shropshire #shropshirelife

The last of my roses are going over. What a summer it’s been for them. We’ve had all sorts of colours so far this year but my heart has been stolen by these yellowy, peachy, orangey ones. Just look how warm and lovely these colours are... #lastoftheroses #oldgold #roses #mygardenthismonth #lovemygarden #warmcolours #autumncolors #autumnvibes

A brief detour through Pitchford on the way back from the supermarket this morning. I saw the sign to the church and couldn’t resist this avenue. The church itself was quite handsome from the outside and promised much. Sadly, apart from some Jacobean pews and pulpit and some amazing monuments, the inside was wiped clean. Some medieval tiles and pre-ref stained glass remain and some later hatchments but it was a curiously empty church (not withstanding the reforms of iconoclasm which I can appreciate - the ancient font was clawed clean of decor for example). Outside again, a leaflet pointed me to a Roman stone face in the south east corner of the building. There’s been a site of worship here since that period at least, when the Romans came to the well here for its pitch and appreciated its dark and underground heritage. The hall at Pitchford is quite another (very beautiful) thing which I hope to go round one day. On my way home I took the road through Cound Moor which led me through a ford. I’m happy to stop mid-stream in a 4x4 so I did and just missed photographing a kingfisher: the third I’ve ever seen in the U.K.- dammit! ☹️ #pitchford #pitchfordestate #shropshirechurches #ancientmonuments #romanobritish #pluto #medievalchurches #alabastertomb #prereformation #earlystainedglass #kingfisher #kingfisherblues #shropshirelife

Just went to a christening at the beautiful church of St Mary’s in Leighton. Lovely service and fabulous setting where I saw this little memorial set into the floor of the nave. Made of local iron, it’s incredibly simple and incredibly durable. But I particularly liked the fact that they found space for an extra ‘e’ on ‘whoe’ but missed out a couple of letters in ‘eighth’! #castiron #irongraveyard #castirongravemarker #17thcenturyspelling #stmarys #leightonchurch #shropshire #shropshirelife #shropshirechurches
