Friday 3.

Not sure I should publish this shot of an early fireback. It has the virtue of antiquity. It shows a 'gentleman' pressing his unwanted attentions on a milkmaid, who reciprocates by spilling milk on him from the pail on her head. If this doesn't cool his ardour I think the pail may follow. I should think this one must have once adorned the fireplace in the bar parlour of a not too picky pub.



View of the back of Ann of Cleeves House. It was given to Ann of Cleeves as part of her divorce settlement from Henry VIII.

Bookshop in a lovely old building (although in dire need of a lick of paint) in the town of Lewes.




The Barbican Gateway to Lewes Castle, one of the first to be built after the Conquest.
