Hooked on Buildings

Chaddesley Corbett

I have been checking out Julie's Hooked on Houses site again, totally addicted!   Will be getting loads of inspiration for when I get to start building my house.

Anyway Julie got me thinking; it took me back to my root's & I came up with these three buildings that have different characteristics.  Photo's courtesy of my Mum, thanks Mum!!

The top photo is a little cottage in the village of Chaddesley Corbett in Worcestershire; the wisteria climbing on the building is just gorgeous.

Stratford-upon-Avon

This one is from Stratford-upon-Avon, where William Shakespeare was born.  It is such a quaint country cottage; it makes you want to go to the village for a cream tea. 

The Crooked House

And finally there is this wonderfully shabby building.  This has now been converted from a miner's cottage, to a public house.   The illusion is enough to induce an unsettling effect in the stomach; either that or one too many pints of Mild (a dark English beer) have been drunk!   What a building this is The Crooked House, in the Black Country in the heart of The Midlands, England. Inside the flooring is level so you don't fall over (only after a few pints). 

I have added a link if any one wants to read about some of the history.
