I rather like this boat...

I took a fancy to this little wooden rowing boat whilst in Wells, and decided that it was worth photographing;

Note the rope fender. I'm always amazed that folk just leave oars in their boats!

Wandering around Walsingham.

Having a spare afternoon during my stay in Wells I travelled on the miniature railway to Walsingham to have a look around. Walsingham is a strange village, uncannily quiet, very rustic with many fine buildings, the main focus being the shrine to Our Lady, a place of pilgrimage for many. I spent time looking at and photographing some of the buildings, and would have visited the museum if it was still open (it closed at 4pm). I did briefly visit the shrine, but not being at all religious felt uncomfortable for some reason...

Anyway, some pics;

Detail above abbey archway.

Smart frontage, corrugated iron rear.

The old railway station, now a Russian Orthadox church. Walsingham has many churches...

I couldn't resist photographing this badly repaired door!

And a half-timbered selection, which should delight modellers;

A few boats in Wells.
