Back to one of my favourite subjects and a walk along the local canal. There seems to be a little park or green space that the canal goes through, and what better to see on the canal but a boat from the Canal Trust and plenty of ducks.
In the background you will see a wonderful large house with very ornate chimneys. The original house on the spot was built in the 17th century but was rebuilt in the French Gothic style in 1874. It became a children's home in 1921 and thousands of children have been looked after there ever since.
The park was part of the house grounds and is now also part of a lovely new housing complex. Thank you for the kind words on my stew, it was both a filler in my 365project, and an even bigger filler of my tummy. View with the dark surround.
