Kendal

This view has hardly changed for many a year, including the cobbled street. 

The Market Square.

Middleton's hardware shop.

Main entrance to the Kendal town library. 

The Elephant Yard, home of several 'specialist' shops. 

The Birdcage is always a popular place to sit

Looking down Stricklandgate toward the Town Hall, with the clock tower,  on the left. 

It's that time of the year.

The tea rooms, with teapot, cups and saucers, plus cake stand in the window. 

Highgate, looking toward Stricklandgate. 

The unusual shape of the view through the window caught my eye. It is looking out from the Miles Thompson pub onto Allhallows Lane. 

Floral display outside the Town Hall.

The Queen did indeed visit Kendal, the day after I was there. 

Even the otherwise austere looking bus station has been brightened up with troughs of flowers.
