Sardines

More terraced houses in the Fairview area of town. This curved row is on a narrow street but isn't as claustrophobic as it looks. A bit of cropping and a tight angle did that!

Girls Face

Today some more details from the red brick former school that is now apartments. I still haven't found out the name of the school. Sorry! What I do know is that they don't make school buildings like this anymore.

Terraced

Its not all Regency Georgian townhouses in Cheltenham, there are plenty of areas that encapsulate different architectural styles. These terraced houses in the Fairview area of town are typical of the turn of the last century. They were built for the working classes, crammed into the tiny space, giving a high density of affordable housing. Now these same houses are sold as town centre living and are home to all sorts of different classes. How times change.

Spring Chicken

I was very tempted to have a go on this kids toy in Fairview Park! There was no one around, hence the photo in a children's park, but I controlled my child-ish urges and took a grown up photo instead!

Have a playful weekend.

Sky Watch Friday

Red And Blue.

Enough of the green (see previous posts if you have no idea what I'm talking about!) Now its red and blue, well for today. I love the detail of the architecture of this former school building that is now converted to apartments. I can't actually remember the name of the school, need to check that out, and, as I have a few other good photos of this building to post, I will do some research! In the mean time just enjoy SWF!

To join in with, or to check out other skies, head over to the Sky Watch Friday Blog.

Green House

More green today. This house stands out from all its neighbours in this row of white terraces. How could I not of photographed it?! Anyone out there live in a house painted green?

Being Green

A simple photo for an extra special day at Cheltenham DP. Its my 700th post! I can't believe it! Thanks to everyone who visits, follows and comments, its really appreciated.

I liked all the different elements in this photo. I've got a whole green-vibe-thing going on at the moment. More green tomorrow.
