Borrowing a few more of Maggi's photos here, since her 'puter is down and
she
hasn't yet been able to continue her travelogue
. Thanks sis !
(Also because hers came out better than ours !)
All those with the date stamp are Maggi's work.
The first six on this page are windscreen shots from the moving car.
Wednesday 12th July and we're heading north again.
You've heard the nursery rhyme that goes
Ride a cock horse
to Banbury Cross
To see a fine lady ride on a white horse...
well, here she is ! The statue was unveiled in 2005. There are some
excellent photos
of it here
and for anyone who is interested, A
History of Banbury.
Not what you'd expect
to see in the middle of a roundabout ! I have no idea of its story.
Newsflash !!
Thanks to my friend
Ken for providing this
info.
Memories of childhood
trips "up north" to visit the rellies. We always used to try to
count these kilns...
... but I'm still not
sure how many there really are !
The
Angel of the North
Click on the link to read about this unusual sculpture and to see
a
360 degree interactive panorama.
(Please excuse the rear view mirror !)
No date stamp because
I cropped it, but this is Maggi's photo.
Next stop,
Chester's
Roman Fort and Museum on
Hadrian's Wall.
My photo that belonged with this plaque came out really badly, but I
thought the
information was interesting enough to include anyway.
Relics
from Roman times which have been excavated in the area.

Modern day relics admiring the Roman relics.
