The House on the Corner by ladymagpie

The House on the Corner

This could have come under my titles of "A view around the Village" as it's just around the corner from my home. I have put on a lot of weight and my health is suffering because of this, so I've decided to make sure I go for a walk every day until I'm fit enough to get back to my Geocaching.

I stopped here as this is a lovely cottage (Rosebank) on the corner of this pretty lane that climbs up to the woods. I noticed the sunlight making patterns in the air and the ground which I wanted to capture.

Part way up this lane a geocaching friend has placed a cache called "Lady Magpie" as a dedication to me, I'm famous to anyone who finds it. View with the dark surround to see the sunlight better.

Here's a link to it:

I love the lighting on this stone house! That gate with a close focus would be fantastic!

I was just checking out that you were following Jane who is a very keen geocaching enthusiast & you are! Walking is a great exercise, I am trying to do more but the weather is not helping when you would rather be inside by the fire with a book! You have lovely places to walk Heather, perhaps you could walk someone's dog?

Getting those light beams can be difficult.

On my next long walk, I'll look for the cache (NE 4740.3 mi from your home location)

Lovely capture, Walking is good I combine it with calorie counting... hubby and I in Winter walk around a shopping mall ( about 6 -8 miles in total) - lucky for us we are only 10 minutes drive from Bluewater. Millie has mentioned geocaching to me but haven't yet looked into it.

What a great building. I just love the character of it. Our buildings are so boring here!

Bet inside it's full of character, but you've made it very atmospheric outside.

Very cool to have a geocache named after you. I keep thinking about going out... and then I find an excuse. And, yes, the weight does pile on the more I sit.

Love the texture and character of this stonework house. Good for you to get out and walk every day!

Such a pretty cottage and lane and the lighting is so nice.

Beautiful old stone cottage in the sunlight. I hope you enjoy your walks, even if its difficult in this weather. If you can't find a dog, and they're the best companions, ask a friend to accompany you.

Looks good on black Heather. It emphasises the different tones in the stonework.

Love your old buildings :)
