Come away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o
This week my entry is about the contents of the window. In Ashburton there is a window featuring a sculpture by Heather Jansch. She has become well known for her driftwood horses, but unless you live in the UK I doubt you would know of her.
Have a look at her website, its really stunning work, my phone shot doesn’t do it justice.
As it says this is the Phoenix, in the centre of Exeter. It’s a venue for arts of all types and for everyone. I was just there for the food last week though 🙂 a lovely cheese platter for £10.95, for two to share. As I turned up from Gandy street the warm glow jumped out and I knew it would be this weeks windows!
Come and join in with Sandra’s Challenge here! you must be able to do better then me and my mobile!
This photo was taken along the road from Salisbury cathedral, in August 2009. It was at first floor level and the building is very old. The Sheep? Well I tried to find out more and it seems to allude to Wiltshire being a sheep farming county. Sadly the other thing I discovered is that a year or so after I photographed it, the sheep was decapitated, a mindless act of destruction. I feel for the people whose windows they are.

You wouldn’t really expect me to post a conventional window every week would you? I saw this one with its lovely objects around it at Cockington last weekend and I knew I would share it today.

It’s Thursday so it’s time for Sandra’s Window Challenge and I’m pleased to show you this one from Exeter Quay. This building was originally built as the sign says in 1780 as a cotton mill but by 1834 it was a paper mill. It is now divided up into waterfront flats and in front there are some remains of industrial equipment, painted green and a nice touch of history. It’s the window I like best, and wonder why it was made that shape. The stone is most likely from Heavitree Quarry which was still in use when I was a child.

Sandra had started a new challenge, Thursday’s Windows! She is taking a  very light hearted approach, join in if you want or skip it if you don’t. It’s going to be windows every week so I don’t know if I can manage it but for now I’m joining her.
If you have a pretty, ugly or interesting window you would like to post the link at  Sandra‘s!
