the way out

The exit from the Hospital of St Cross and Almshouse of Noble Poverty: You can perhaps see the smaller final exit through the arch.

I just wondered what textures and patterns might be revealed in the fabric of these old buildings in a b&w conversion.

Wonderfully captured - the black and white is perfect.

It looks great when viewed on black. It's such an interesting building that I looked it up on Wikipedia! It was founded by the grandson of William the Conqueror and a younger brother of King Stephen. I love entrance ways.

Love old buildings like these. Well captured.

I bet these walls have some stories to tell.

Neat b/w shot, architecture

[Merrelyn]

Great building, with a very interesting name. I can't imagine that the poor who entered, considered their poverty to be noble :)

[Penelope Ann]

They built them to last!
