Walking Around Collessie In Late Spring
We came to live in the centre of Collessie nearly three years ago, and it is a beautiful, quiet hamlet that is truly untouched by the modern world that surrounds it. The village is a peaceful haven with a ...Read more

Hogarth Close
I remember Hogarth Close going up - it seemed out of place as all the rest of Bower Way was bungalows or modest 2-storey houses but with good-sized gardens. This was different - small gardens and lots of 3-storey buildings. I seem to remember it was built on the site of 2 big houses?

St Mary's Church, which rises behind the Dolphin Hotel, is renowned for its lavishly-decorated tower and impressive tie beam roof, both of which date from its rebuilding in the 15th century.
The tower in the picture was at the end of an aerial ride that carried passengers over the lake; the ride was closed and dismantled at the end of the 1911 season.
With its modern tower and spire rising 140 feet above Twyford, the handsome church looks out across woods and meadows towards the bank of the Itchen.

Tom Tower is one of the college's most treasured architectural features, as well as a famous landmark on the Oxford skyline.
Parts of the first tower remain integral with the present church, which dates from 1574. A yew tree in the churchyard has been certified by dendrologists to be over one thousand years old.
In the background can be seen the cooling towers and chimneys of the Ratcliffe-on-Soar power stations.
The coronet design on the tower of All Hallows Church is the only one of its kind in Sussex, and rarely found throughout the country.
The village church, dedicated to St Nicholas, is Norman in origin and was partially rebuilt during the 13th century.Within a few decades the church was extended; the west tower with its octagonal spire

This market, with the medieval Luttrell Arms Hotel to the right and Conygar Tower on the hill behind, has little changed.
The Market Hall with its clock tower is on the right.
Here we see the Norman tower of the village church of All Saints.
The church, like the inn, is dedicated to St George: with its lantern tower and steeple rising to 120 feet, it is visible for miles around in this flat landscape.
The clock tower, erected in 1902 in memory of George the son of Potto Brown, still provides shelter for visitors on their way to visit the famous mill or using the Ouse Valley Way.

A superb view looking up the Western Cleddau into Haverfordwest with the Castle in the centre and the tower of St Thomas à Becket on the hill overlooking it.
The squat church-tower, the steadily clambering roofs, and the central pond all combine to make a satisfying, unsophisticated scene.
The hollow circular tower is open to the elements, and provides a good home for hundreds of pigeons. It is over 100ft high, and is divided into four storeys.
The castle can be clearly seen on the right of the picture and the tower of St Mary's with one of its clock faces to the centre of the picture on the horizon.
The best feature of the town is undoubtedly the parish church with its lofty 13th-century tower. To the right is the George and Dragon pub.
On the extreme left in this photograph the pinnacles of the church's 120-foot Perpendicular central tower can be seen rising above the buildings.
On the left is London Square, where the obelisk of the war memorial towers above all else.
Peeping above the town's rooftops is the tower of St Michael the Archangel, perhaps the finest of Hampshire's Perpendicular parish churches.
