After the Fall

great porches


We were amused last March, when enjoying a wander around historic Warkworth with friends Brenda and Peter, to hear that this  cheery house was once a house of ill repute. Just down the street from the church?

 I loved the bold colour (albeit thinning in places). Our own painted lady, Northumberland County style.





The sign reads 'The Yellow Bordello'.
love the parlour lamp

curtains discretely snugged tight




Isn't this place just the thing for a dull November day?
