The other place I spent a considerable amount of time was the old school house. Some of the original fixtures and details had been retained.
And the desks had some beautifully hand-painted pictures on them.
The building had a quiet calm about it, as well as a touch of sadness, somehow.
Nelly seemed to make herself at home there though.
Here's what's on my workbench tonight - glass all cut and ready for leading-up (for the front door at the former doctor's surgery)
What a wonderful old school, I adore places like that.Looks as if time stood still.
