the Almshouses of Mordor

My first thought was Gormenghast, but it could be Mordor. Either way, what was the architect thinking?

My first thought was Gormenghast...

Heh! Yes, I have absolutely no explanation for the design of those almshouses... Unless it was the same 19th century punish-the-paupers mentality that came up with the Workhouse.

Oh, not that Colquhoun Grant. Odd. Presumably they must have been cousins of some kind!

[puddleshark]

My, what exciting lives those Colquhoun Grants led!

Another fine walk. Were these taken with the new camera? If so, you seem to have things all figured out!

[puddleshark]

No, these were all taken with the old camera (which decided to start working again as soon as I had ordered a replacement!)

I'm hoping to get to grips with the new camera this weekend.

Gorgeous and interesting.

Thanks!

Frampton is a fascinating place - the whole village shaped by the grand house that's no longer there.

lol

Very interesting.

[puddleshark]

One day I'll get a better shot of those almshouses. They're amazingly hideous.

Thanks!

Looking forward to that.
