Tangmere

I spotted the ironwork on the side of this house as we were driving through Tangmere. I think the date should read 1898, but I'm not sure about the Xs and Ss

Lovely shot and well spotted.

isn't that clever to do something decorative to match the structural - v. nice

A really interesting capture. I love that old wall.

Nice find, that's something that I've noticed more about myself, I look for interesting subjects more than I used to.

@joev I definitely think that photography makes you study your surroundings more. The problem is I often wonder why things are there or who made them etc. and I seldom find the answer.

Great find, I read it as 1988 which could be the time the metal work was put in possibly to stop the wall bulging out? Just a guess!

[Josie Gilbert]

@shirleybankfarm It could be read either way.

Yes I think they are called 'tie bars' as you say to stop the building falling to bits!

Lovely architecture, Josie.
