Whittington.

It was a dull old day when we cruised on to moor at Whittington behind tunnel-tug Sharpness. The next morning we sauntered up to see what the village was like. This was a G.P.O. delivery cart with one of the flower displays around The Green.

More flowers in a beautiful stone trough, with a delightful little cottage in the background. Anyone know what this plant is?

There were several lovely cottages and every garden seemed to be immaculately kept We liked the old petrol pump and wire wheel on the garden wall. There was a Co-op, Cafe, P.O Stores, Estate Agents and a Chemist also. The locals were very friendly and all spoke to us as we passed them.
