Shutting the Stable Door

On first seeing this building attached to a house on the main street in the village of Hartley I thought it was an old, but well kept barn. Then I looked again, while taking the photo, and realised it was a large stable. In the days before horse power a fine place to keep your horses.

  4. Fantastic. The red of the wood really pops against the stone arch. Great find.

  5. Stable doors are excellent choice as a traditional property. Red door is looking like a fairy door of a fairy tale.
