    These are just beautiful, LOVE the Tweedledum/ Tweedledee….
    Some are so creative, must be a joy to be able to make them.

    I love the humour of these whimsical carvings. How utterly fantastic.

    They’d certainly take some cleaning, Cherie.

    At a stone merchant I used awhile ago he had a large selection of reclaimed items including a few gargoyles from an old demolished church.
    When I inquired about them he said “you talking about my Dungie Boys” I have never heard that expression other than in Suffolk ?
