An Open Door...... Double Take!



Since we have been staying here near the Malverns I have cycled a number of times to Tewkesbury and Anne and I have also driven there so we could have a proper look around the town.....

The stand out place in the town for us was the Abbey which we both thought was stunning.
It was a really interesting and historic  place that gave me lots of subject matter for my monochrome photography.

I am planning to ressurect my photography blog 'Aura of Past Shadows" a little later in the year and the abbey gave me some good b/w images.

One of the other things that grabbed my attention was a front door on a terraced house in the town.....
The owner had painted the image of an open door leading to a garden on the front door...it really did need a double take...
The image of that door is shown below ......
the other image is a shot of the wonderful Abbey...

Tewkesbury Abbey is beautiful but Tewkesbury its self the last time we were there looked in need of some money being spent on restoring the old buildings in the town. Many of them seemed to be in private ownership and must be a huge financial burden on the owner as the restoration costs of a Grade 1 listed building is huge. Its been glorious weather for cycling.

@Dave
It certainly has been great weather for cycling.... Your right about some of the buildings in Tewkesbury.... They could do with a bit of money spent on them but I get the sense that money is in short supply in the town generally....
