Hi Cherie, Great photos from Rochester. Interestingly a fellow blogger (on my sidebar) “Ramblings from an English Garden” also has some post about Rochester. Looks like it is somewhere we need to go.
Thanks for letting me know, I will check out those posts
Rochester is a fascinating place, I was only there a short while so I only have a few photos. Still one or two more to come though
It is a fine looking clock Cherie and you have framed it as well as the bell tower and the weather vane nicely…
But do people actually come to this place with corn… to exchange them with other people for their bushels of corn:D… you Bitts have some strange customs lol….peter:)
The clock and the bell tower, yes
It was the former corn exchange, so hopefully nothing weird id going on now…
For some reason looking at this photograph, I imagine the beginning of an Hitchcock movie. I love how you frame the clock.
I think it might be the white line that gives it the Hichcock feel. I hadn’t thought of it until you mentioned it though.
A weathervane AND a clock! I like how the clock sits out like a sore thumb, Cherry. That’s different from what we see here in the Netehrlands with all our clocks set inside towers.
Two of your favourite things. They have many interesting weather vanes in that part of the world.
I love your photos of some most interesting architecture to be found all over the UK. Rochester is new to me so thanks.
I am glad you like them, I enjoy taking them and sharing them. Rochester was new to me too, I would have liked a little bit longer there.
