Broadwell, the village we're staying in, lit a jubilee beacon, one of a line on The Cotswolds Hills.
Well I say a beacon, it was a bonfire, on the edge of a field, almost underneath an oak tree. There must have been about thirty people in all, gazing in wonder at the flames, spotting the other 7 or so beacons light up and enjoying distant firework displays.( The village pub is hosting fireworks tomorrow)
On the horizon that dot is another beacon, we counted seven dotted around.
Such a wonderful celebration whether large or small.
Jackie we have been enjoying Penelope Keith's program on English villages & the last one was The Cotswolds.. A beautiful area...
How thrilling to be a part of this celebration. I love the way you have composed this photo and the fact that we can see the beacon in the distance as well. I think you’ve chosen a wonderful way to commemorate the occasion in this photo
