England In Photos: Week 1

We didn't get many photos this week, odd to our usual form (we love photography), but this is a start.
Each week (hopefully on Fridays if there is time) we hope to post a selection of our best photos from:

Our walk into city center...


English terrace houses we pass each time we walk into the city center.



On the castle grounds...



Castle Fountain

Touching an almost 2000 year old castle foundation (The Roman Temple of Claudius),
built in 54-60 A.D., with a new castle built on top of the old foundation,
by order of William the Conqueror, in 1070 A.D.
In 1645 suspected witches were interrogated
and imprisoned in this castle - touching history is amazing.
Pictures of castle to come....

A market day, these little stands run up all the streets in the city center,
selling everything from produce, nuts, cupcakes, shoes, purses...everything.

  1. Lovely pictures, Frankie! I am so happy that you are taking me with you on this adventure via your pictures and this blog. Take advantage of the Sun when it does appear, I've been told by a reliable source that it doesn't show up very often.
    Big Hugs and Kisses to you and James,
    Minxy
