eremos - diary of a (sort of) hermit

traces still remain

One thing I like to do is wander around villages near where I live. Inevitably, there are a lot of new homes being built there, often expanding into 'wild' areas and reducing green space even further.

One thing I do like to keep an eye open for though are not only things that have been preserved from the past, but ones that probably just survived by being forgotten. It's almost like some of the past has quietly found its way into our modern world.

The pic below is on a church, but sometimes it's just an old stone as part of a wall or something that survives of an old barn that has been converted into something else.

and then, of course .. there are strange things that randomly appear for no apparent reason!
