More Tickhill scenes

Some more pictures from my wander around Tickhill – mostly taken after I visited the church.

I’m fond of the old-style road sign (or “fingerpost” as I believe they are called) and I’ve had it in my mind to maybe do some sort of project on them. I just need to pull my finger out and get on with it. 🙂 There are many of them still dotted about, mostly in rural locations (although there’s one five minutes walk from where I live, in the suburbs).

The second picture shows the market cross (although market temple feels more apt in this case), with the fingerpost hiding in the background.

The light had become a bit drab when I took these pictures, it being after the rain shower that had forced me to take shelter, so the pictures are a little flat (especially the last shot, of the butcher’s shop), I think.
