Looking through the wibbly-wobbly glass of the magnificent greenhouse at Greenway House back in March.
The greenhouse sits in a peaceful walled garden looking onto the croquet lawn
Another view catching shadows on the inside
and in contrast,
the windows from inside the old stables at the lost village of Tyneham
seen on a recent visit with Master R and Little Miss M.
I sat and crocheted at the picnic table outside while the children played a wonderful game of make-believe in the stables and barns
Have you spotted any windows of interest?
We meet here on the first Tuesday of every month to share photos of windows we have found.
Whether ancient or modern, each window tells a story.
Leave a link in the comments, any time this month, to a new or archive post – all welcome.
Hello! I just found this challenge via Cee’s challenge collection. Here is a link to a blog dictated by my horse Biasini.The second to last photo in the post is of him looking out the window of his stall and so that is my “window” photo.

I love those old greenhouses – my dad made his own once with a brick wall and white painted wooden frame.
Here are a few window photos I catured on a recent trip to Scotland https://wherethejourneytakesme2.wordpress.com/2019/05/07/beaching-rambling-around-the-borders-and-new-luce/

Clever Dad! I would so love a greenhouse but they are very expensive if you can’t build your own.
Thank you for your wonderful entry – you take us on a great wander around your beautiful area.

Neat glass in the greenhouse and the thick stone walls are something we don’t see around here, they look so sturdy!

Although buildings with thick stone walls often have small windows and sre therefore quite dark inside, they do have a very cosy, protective feeling about them.

You are so right – there were 7 or 8 huge greenhouses there, all still in magnificent working order – wonderful to see.

Some lovely windows there – I love the old greenhouse. Why isn’t there more inside it though?
Windows are a sore point for me at the moment. We are renovating our bathroom and it’s going to be lovely – however, we’re stuck with glass bricks for a window as we look over the neighbour’s ‘garden’ aka overgrown back yard and only from the first floor but the law’s the law. Too late, it occurred to me that we could have put a piece of stained glass in there instead 😦

The photo was taken back in March, there might be more in there now – there was also a kitchen garden with working greenhouses stuffed with seedlings and tender plants when I was there.

A shame about the bathroom windows – always far too many decisions to make when doing any kind of building work. Could you paint the blocks with glass paint in a colourful design?
