The “Kissing Bridge” over the River Wey.
Fuggletim posted a gallery image in Buildings, architecture and cityscapes
This bridge across the River Wey is very interesting as it once housed 2 x Waterwheels which powered an old iron foundry. The foundry ceased operating in the 19th Century and there is little evidence now apart from this bridge and its abutments. Some old iron ore “slag” can still be found around the site, though. This is located at Hammer, a village where the county boundaries of Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire meet just outside Haslemere. The view is spoilt a bit by the water pipe crossing in front of the bridge (this is much more recent) and the author does not know where this pipe goes to or from.© Fuggletim

An English pub well known to both the author of this post and the owner of this website! Situated about 1.5 x miles from Bordon in Hampshire in Hollywater, the author has been coming here for over 42 x years. After a long period of closure between 2021 and 2023 it re-opened in November 2023 and this is an outside view on the first anniversary party in November 2024!

Some unseasonably cold and wet days in the UK has seen heavy rain showers and strong Sunshine. A recent rain shower has passed and the Sun pitching in from the West creates a beautiful Rainbow above Whitehill in Hampshire. If there is truth about the “Crock of Gold” at the end of the Rainbow, then it is in the “Great Wall” Chinese takeaway! 😆

The Hogmoor Inclosure is a beautiful area of heathland in Hampshire England which after years of military use, was given over to the local council in 2016. The Inclosure is the home to many protected species of animals and one of these are bats. This is the Hogmoor Bat Roost at Sunset on a beautiful late Summer’s evening. This location also appears in this gallery in a shot taken in 2020.© Tim Penycate

Several heavy rain showers have affected North Hampshire and Whitehill. The rain has passed, but the clouds that brought some of them are now backlit by the setting Sun.

New Years Eve Sunset at the Royal Oak
Fuggletim posted a gallery image in Sunsets, sunrises, clouds and the sky
The Royal Oak is a legendary pub in the tiny hamlet of Hollywater in Hampshire (between Liphook and Whitehill). After being closed for over 2 x years, it re-opened in November 2023 and is again proving popular. The Sun is setting on New Years Eve 2023 and unfortunately heavy rain isn’t too far away, but let’s hope the Sun never sets again on the Royal Oak!© Tim Penycate

Winchester Cathedral and Guildhall
Fuggletim posted a gallery image in Buildings, architecture and cityscapes
Winchester is the “County Town” of Hampshire (even though it is actually a City). This is the City’s Cathedral with the rather unique green roof of the Guildhall also in view. The Guildhall has always reminded me of the Town Hall in the 1960s children’s TV programme, “Trumpton!”© Tim Penycate
