Friday Fences 3


This week I found this old church in Woodside, not far from where we live.  I guess it's not really old by European standards - or even American, I suppose, but it is about  150 years old as is the old stone fence.


And for those of you who were curious about the house behind the very grand entrance gates last week, here it is.  Just a very standard old Australian stone farmhouse with outbuildings behind that have been extensively renovated and look like they might be stables..



 Its the grounds that continue to amaze me. They now have dozens of old style street laights along the drive  and each tree along the road has its own ground light to illuminate it at night. They are now preparing the front area for instant lawn. Every day something new happens.
