Walk with us across open fields, pastures, narrow black-topped lanes and through the heart of a small village. I'm posting quite a few, so you can get an idea of the surprises you'll find walking in the heart of the Cotswold countryside.

Could you pick up enough loose slates to put a roof on your new house? Loved these pictures! Anne Neyland
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, I've had that thought!! The only problem is, Ronnie has to be able to lift my luggage! Really puts a damper on things when it all has to fit back into 2 bags. :( Thanks for checking out my blog and enjoying my photos!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Ronnie won't haul enough slates for my roof, either... So sad. I always wanted a slate roof... I like the look of thatch, but can't help but think Houston bugs would view thatch as a free pass to swarm.
