Default Part 3, review 75 to Dunster

The thatched buildings, Yarn market and of course the imposing Dunster Castle http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main...dunstercastle/ are easy to photograph and post on this fab forum. What I can not do is capture the atmosphere. You know as you walk the cobbled paths that hundreds of years ago people were walking there too.
The visitors centre has a large print of how the yarn market may have looked in it's heyday, a vibrant place full of people, animals and goods.
There is a working watermill that is worth a visit and you can buy the freshly milled floor.
I hope that these pictures can carry some of Dunsters character to you.

The Yarn Market


I stood with my back to the yarn market to take the next photo.

Dovecote and collecting method!

I don't know, but it would make a great setting. I know 'Hot Fuzz' was filmed in Wells

Nice one g-mac.
