I was near the Haagse Bos and turned down a little street and discovered this curious Dutch Door with a large bat flying over the door.  No one was around to ask…why the bat? Vampires indoors? Or just batty about … Continue reading →

I loved the silhouette the frame-work of the door made against the bright sunshine outside. I can’t imagine how many man hours it took to carve the frame and then also to carve the door. Did they carve the door … Continue reading →

Door- An Old New Door

Posted on May 20, 2013 by susan sheldon nolen

I love how crooked things are every where in England, but what I loved about this door was the fact the house was built in 1693 and rebuilt in 1778! To top it all off, they even state that fact … Continue reading →
