19-JUN-2008 Sheena Woodhead

Ornate Decay

Sheffield

Found this door in Hillsborough Park Walled Garden.
I'm not sure what's in there but it was well and truly padlocked.
The gardener told me that the stonework is from Hillsborough Hall, also in the park, now used as a library.


other sizes: small medium original auto

A lot of work has gone into those pillars, nice find Sheena.

It creates such a contrast, it's almost like a folly!!!

It is indeed an ornate surround for a very workaday door. Lovely tones in the brick and stone, and I like the sunniness which lifts the image. The sense of being forgotten is well conveyed in the triangle of overgrowth at the bottom right.
