Market Lavington Village and Museum by Ekatarina.
We went for a walk round Market Lavington.
All pictures by Ekatarina - except the two with her in them.
Lilac Cottage near Roger and Sue's house.
Thatched Cottage - next door to Lilac Cottage.
Grandma likes this picture. She says she can imagine walking through the gate and knocking on the front door and having a cup of tea with whoever lives there.
We walked through the churchyard.
Grandad likes taking grave pictures and I liked this angel.
In the museum I looked at lots of things.
I am in the kitchen weighing a lemon on old fashioned scales.
It wasn't really a lemon - it was a pencil sharpener!
I enjoyed playing with the dolls house, which is there especially for children.
Big bellows.
Things from the war.
These things are in a glass cabinet and Uncle Roger and Grandad said I would get too much reflection!
But I didn't!
Uncle Roger got an old sewing box out of the store room and we enjoyed arranging all the things.
There was an interesting weather vane on a roof in the village.
We walked to the Elisha Fields. This playing field was left to the village by Mr and Mrs Elisha who had a shop in the village which sold sewing things - perhaps the box came from their shop and probably many of the things in it did.
