This very short pice of road in our village has been shut for 5 weeks now while they tile & mend the roof.
There are four house here....really characterful buildings they are too but have been neglected & left to decay by the very elderly doctor that lives there.
Now a relative has taken over the refurbishing of the whole place which will be good but the whole of the village has been in chaos for five weeks.
All traffic has been redirected around the other narrow roads....a bit disconcerting meeting the school bus scraping past other parked cars.
I took this as I came out of the hairdressers which is on the right.
It cost the owner £2000 but where that money has gone you ask me.....council coffers I would think & they have only provided three diversion signs!
The other side round the corner had to be done too but the scaffolding is in the garden there.
The cars all belong to the workers & are parked there all day.
Great black and white photo.
A little village can't cope with diversions in the way a larger town can. We had a similar issue here a couple of years ago.
@judithg lots of dormer windows Judith & I think they had a major repair job before the even started & now all the windows have been painted.......lots longer than they said though!
Nice shot, it really tells a story. Won't it be wonderful when it is finished though. I agree with Maggiemae you could tag this bw-fn-4 for the architecture theme.
