Doors 88 – Cheltenham doors (Part 1)
At the end of September I went to visit Cheltenham, not too far from Bristol, for the Cheltenham Paint Festival, something I have wanted to do for a year or two now.
Never one to waste a bit of a doorscursion, I managed to snap a few doors while wandering around the town looking for street art spots. I actually went twice and over the two days walked more than 30 kilometers, mainly because I am not at all familiar with the town and also because unlike at Upfest (Bristol’s street art festival) the art is really spread out in all corners of Cheltenham. This meant I got to see quite a wir=de selection of doors.
This first post is just a random selection and I’m not sure I could remember where any of these actually were, but you can forgive me I hope, my mind was on other things:






Well that’s another canter through a few Cheltenham doors – I hope to line some more up soon.
Meanwhile, please go take a look at the Norm 2.0 blog – the originator of Thursday Doors where there are links to yet more doors in the comments section at the end.

I used to spend a lot of work-related time in Cheltenham and those doors are bringing back fond memories.

That’s great. You should try to get over there to see some of the outstanding street art.

You found some beauties. As you say, a pity about the neglected ones.

quite a bit of variety in this collection. It’s hard not to feel a bit sad for the neglected ones. The big green doors and that bright red one stood out best for me.

It’s a toss-up between the fire engine red one and the green church doors. You found some great ones!
