THE FOLLY

Looking lovely with the Summer Foliage
An afternoons Walk and this is what I found
Front Door
I had to get the Key from the Manor House to enter.


Looking to the Left from Front Door

Looking to the Right from Front Door 





Surrounding inside Door Frame

Panel to Right Middle is the 'Conch Shell' 
The Shell had been placed as an ornament within our Rockery Garden for many years And because these Inspiring Archeologists desperately required another to complete this panel, we gave it to them  -  Some of the other Shells had to be bought in.

Different Stones used

Time to look back & say Goodbye till next time
