Windmill roses

We've had an unseasonably mild winter so there are still flowers around that you wouldn't expect to see this time of year.
These uses are growing close to the old windmill which takes back to the late 18th century.
It stands seven storeys high and was reputed to be once the tallest building in Ireland. It's wooden sails were taken down towards the end of the 19th century.

Much more cheerful scene that here with the bright roses and a little blue sky.

That is a gorgeous image, the roses contrasting with the old stone mill behind. Quite an impressive structure too, at that height. V
