Foggy, drizzly day in Norwich


Norwich has a beautiful Norman cathedral with a medieval spire, here glimpsed from the river bank, and looking quite like Salisbury...



This lion stands proud in front of the 20th century City Hall, but here you can see the medieval Guildhall in the background.


Beautiful fountain figure in front of the 18th century Assembly House


A quaint area called Tombland - here suffering from a bit of sag...


And one for Josie!


It's not even much fun being a pigeon in the market place on a day like this :-)

Autumn colour at Stourhead


The colours are muted at Stourhead this autumn.  There was a frost on Friday night, but the strong wind on Saturday was blowing the leaves away before they could change colour.


The garden was packed with people, lots taking photos, but some just strolling...


The first glimpse of the Temple from above the lake is wonderful in any season.
