I drive past the village every day and watch it change with the seasons. Snowdrops and daffodils mark the beginning of spring, roses welcome the summer and Virginia creeper and berries herald the arrival of autumn.The seasons have also taken their toll on the cottages and last winter was particularly hard. Slates had fallen off and there were holes in the roof.
The owners of the village have had the roof repaired and the windows boarded up to make it weatherproof. Unfortunately they do not have any plans to restore it as their main business is a nearby hotel.
