” Rich Golden colours of Stone Cottages “
Old cottages (now much sort after) on a steep hill and narrow lane in the village of Duffield, Derbyshire. For those of you can recall the old Hovis TV adverts, this could have provide an alternative location. But it provides 6 words for this Saturdays 6 Word Challenge.

Living in a rural area in the USA as I do, it’s hard for me to even imagine streets like this with old village cottages, but oh, how I’d love to see that sometime!

it is a lesson in, i guess, a lesson in local sustainabilty. Local stone cut to size and used to build both houses, chuches, schools, and factories. The colour of local stone was spefic to an area…hence the distinctivly regional colour identity of their older buildings. Now it just red brick but also mainly concrete in the cities.
