My house will be 100 yrs old next year, which by U.K. standards is relatively new, but by American standards is ancient. Great buildings.

Thank you for the tour, the very personal aspects of the photography and the bounty of details you shared here.

And I admire how it was determined to continue, even though they tried to 'rearrange' it out of existence in the 1970s.<br /><br />Great post.MorningAJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04719744167307369768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-50202559540527795922011-09-28T04:27:20.282+01:002011-09-28T04:27:20.282+01:00I always love your posts, mostly about a country I...I always love your posts, mostly about a country I have never visited; they make me long to go there.

I assume there would have been more parts to the sundial (the little stick that casts the shadow) and wonder what happened and why they've not been replaced. Love the word gnomon - it sounds so old and conjures up an ancient world.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09715879775216108688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-83779201319615022992011-09-27T20:42:14.855+01:002011-09-27T20:42:14.855+01:00I really enjoyed this detailed post Bob.

I feel as if I’ve been on a virtual tour of Ketton - where I’ve never been in reality you’ll be pleased to hear :)Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.com
