Tibberton.

This idyllic little place was thoughtfully named Black and White Cottage! I like the enormous chimney at this end which could have been the wash house or a bread oven maybe.

The village seems to be of two parts with the one centred around the church having been a farming community and the other half being nearer the canal. The busy little road runs straight through connecting one to the other. There is a useful Post Office Store selling the essentials and  two pubs all within easy walking distance of the canal.
