Looking up inside the Roman lighthouse in the grounds of Dover Castle, revealing ancient stone masonry walls, small arched openings, and timber roof beams illuminated by light from the roof.

Shop window display of a traditional barbershop on Queensway, viewed from outside. Inside the window is a mannequin dressed as a British ceremonial guard, wearing a tall black bearskin hat and a bright red uniform with silver buttons and a black collar. In front of the mannequin are neatly arranged grooming products and colognes displayed on a black stand labeled β€œTruefitt & Hill,” alongside a shaving brush and razor. To the right sits a large ornate lamp with a cream-colored glass shade and a decorative porcelain base featuring cherub artwork in soft pastel tones. Beside it is a small figurine of a badger dressed in Victorian-style clothingβ€”a green waistcoat, long coat, and tiny hatβ€”standing on a grassy base. On the left side of the display is a bouquet of pink lilies and white flowers in a glass vase. Warm golden lighting from vintage-style hanging lamps illuminates the barbershop interior, revealing wood shelves and classic dΓ©cor. The shop sign reading β€œMR. B” is partially visible in the background, giving the scene an elegant, old-world London barber atmosphere.

Interior of the Norman under croft at Battle Abbey, founded by William the Conqueror on the site of the 1066 Battle of Hastings. Thick stone columns support low Romanesque vaulted ceilings, while warm light from arched windows falls across weathered limestone walls marked by centuries of damp and age. Deep shadows between the pillars create a quiet, contemplative atmosphere within this thousand-year-old monastic space.

Even the cold behaves differently here,
Less a bite than a settling.
As if the room has learned at last
How to hold its dead in peace.

Thanks so much jen - had a chap earlier tell me it was a fake, cause physics and upside down reflections, I pointed out that I had just turned the image upside down -deleted his comment in about 2 mins. Men of a certain age and temperament, so certain and yet so wrong!! πŸ˜‚
