I live in a lovely old section of town. Now that the weather’s getting nicer, I’m able to get out and take some pictures of doors. Here’s what I came up with this week.
I haven’t been able to find any history on this house, but it’s obviously old. I’d love to know what kind of house it is. I plan to do more research on it.
The front door has been updated, by the looks of it. I love the thickness of the wall.
This photo was taken at sunset, whereas the others were taken this morning. Note the way the sun at the top corner of the house makes the photo appear aged. Also, note the door on the right side of the house.
It’s hard to tell what it’s made of, but it looks metal. Was the place a jail?
There was some major hardware on it once upon a time…

Maybe you should knock on that door and find out!

Ha! So easy, and yet so difficult. 😛 I think I’ll play it safe and go to the library. Who knows, after all – maybe it’s still a prison. Or a well-disguised Venus flytrap!

Great doors, Linda. Do follow-up with us if you find any more history about the building. Those are formidable looking doors.

This looks an impressive house, but the doors do seem overly protective of it. I wonder what secrets they are keeping?

I love that house and I really love the door on the side. Probably was a jail at some point. Would love to know what you find out about the place. 🙂

I’ll check the local library next time I’m there. If I find out anything, I’ll post about it. 😀

Mmm, very interesting. I love it. It does look like a prison door. Love that door, though. Love it.

I think one of the great things about doors is the mystery of what might be behind them. When the door itself is a mystery, it’s that much better. 😀

Nice that the weather co-operated a little. We’ve had so much rain lately I’m wondering if should start building an ark.
Between the stone walls and the overall look of that last one you may be right about it having been a jail.
Thanks for taking us along on your stroll 🙂

We’re getting our deluge now. It was a nice week though. They’re calling for snow Sunday.
Glad you enjoyed my stroll, Norm! Thanks for hosting: I think about Thursday Doors every week, even when I haven’t had a chance to get out to snap some photos. 🙂
