It’s time for October’s Photo Scavenger Hunt again! This month some pictures are from an afternoon out in Cumbria and others were taken a little closer to home. If you fancy looking at everyone else’s takes on the prompts head on over to Made With Love.
Question ~ Which is the Witch??? Ha ha ha. My friend took this of myself and my charming companion in the pub at the weekend. 🙂
Cream ~ A rather good Afternoon Tea which some friends and I enjoyed at ‘The Inn on the Lake’ on the shores of Ullswater in the Lake District. It includes the obligatory scone with jam and clotted cream of course. 🙂
Number ~ A number of beer kegs in the grounds of Brougham Hall which we visited in Cumbria. The Hall near Penrith is currently being restored and the grounds contain several craft shops and the Eden Brewery.
Lattice ~ The windows in this chapel in Brougham have attractive lattice work.
Familiar ~ Hugo and I take this familiar route round Clitheroe Castle grounds quite often. 🙂
Ring ~ I love this fantastic door knocker at Brougham Hall with the knocker ring threaded through the creature’s mouth. It is one of only four in the country.
Today ~ Leaves carpet the grounds of Clitheroe Castle on Hugo’s walk this afternoon.
Writing ~ Vintage wall signs outside the cafe at Brougham Hall.
Down ~ Apples are squashed to a pulp and drop down to be pressed at Dove Syke Farm. Wil and I went there for a Cider Festival at the beginning of the month.
Many ~ And here are just some of the Apples ready to be pressed and made into cider. 😉
Broken ~ The ruins of Brougham Hall which are slowly being restored. The building is 700 years old.
Whatever you want ~ A beautiful Rose still flowering in October.
Thanks for dropping by. You can find out more about Brougham Hall here. X
I love the door knocker you have a photo of from Brougham Hall! Beautifully done:)
Its beautiful isn’t it.Thank you very much.:)
That first photo is a wee bit scary! :O
Ha Ha I Know! Well it is nearly Halloween after all. 😉 Does Finland celebrate Halloween? x
That’s true 🙂 There’s no real tradition of celebrating Halloween, but it’s becoming increasingly popular in Finland too! Traditionally it’s a day of remembering the dead by putting candles on loved ones’ graves – which turns the cemeteries into beautiful seas of lights 🙂 x
Oh that sounds a lovely idea.It will be great for Lana growing up with two nationalities different traditions .x
Great collection! I still have a few to take, struggling with some items, I’m going to be finishing late (for me) this month! I’ve finally published my wildlife wishlist post too – it was really hard, so much to see, I just kept waffling on and couldn’t have written for days!
You always come up with some good pictutes in the end! I shall have to check out your wishlist.X
What a fabulous idea! Love your interpretation!
Thanks Mell!!!!
Hugo looks very patient waiting for you to stop taking photos so you can get on with your walk. ;)) You don’t don’t look scary at all…but that witch? EW! lol
Hugo was wishing i would hurry up i’m sure. Hey that witch is a good friend of mine.Cackle Cackle.x
Thoroughly enjoyed your October photos ~ what a terrific selection. That door knocker is a perfect choice for ring, and your cream tea…well, what can I say? Yum!! Love how you started out with the which witch ~ your nice smile doesn’t scare me 😉 Looks like you had a wonderful time on your visit.
Thanks very much Glo.The Door knocker really did match the prompt and you can’t go wrong with a cream tea! X
Yum, that afternoon tea looks good! Love the door knocker too and the beautiful rose. x
You have taken some great photos, I’ve enjoyed them all – thecream tea looks very tasty and I love the door knocker and the lattice window:)
Thanks Rosie ~ the Afternoon tea was brill and I’m glad i saw the church for the lattice windows as I struggled with that prompt.x
Such a beautiful rose, still a few about – lovely to see them this late on! Really enjoyed your photos – love the window and the magnificent door knocker.
Great photos! Nice to see a late rose, such a beautiful colour and of course I have to mention that fabulous knocker! Cider is my tipple, I’d have loved to try a pint or two.
What beautiful photos for the scavenger hunt, Shazza! What a lovely area you live in. Your photos of the apples reminded me of apple gathering time in Nova Scotia and the men who collected the apples in my grandmother’s yard for the cider makers. And that gorgeous rose! A beautiful shot of a magnificent flower. Happy hunting in November!
