Basement entrances

The sloping doors (right) are cellar entrances. Used in those day`s for profiant and peat storage. ( Those are very common in the old inner city. )

Another lovely lane- we have a door like that on our house but not as slanted.

[Louise & Ken]

I love that you're showing us older houses and neighborhoods; there's such beauty in them! Nowhere here out west would we find anything like that, so this is a delight to see! Thank you for the Thanksgiving wishes; Ken and I shared a lovely dinner, and today the rest of the family arrives home; we don't leave here for 3 more days.

Just a peak at the city as it looked many years ago. Thanks for sharing.

A lovely shot of this wonderful quiet street. I love the variety of architecture - fav! I notice the large upper windows that look as if they might once have been doors, and the beam above them. Were they once used as warehouses?

I also like architecture. I enjoy looking at these photos of yours!

[Kathy]

I wouldn't want to duck and go down or up stairs to get the basement this way. But it's sure interestesting to see.

[Heather]

I like your composition to capture these brick buildings on either side of the cobbled walkway. And those cellar entrances are really interesting! Fav
