Doors 168 – Looe doors, Cornwall – Part 2
Continuing with my second set of doors from a recent fishing trip to Looe in Cornwall.
My first impressions of Looe, formed a few years ago at the height of grockle (tourist) season, were not entirely good. Very crowded and if I am honest it all felt a bit naff. However, this October, my views were turned upside down, and I felt some affection for the place. The absence of hoards of holidaymakers meant that you could actually appreciate the town, it’s streets and buildings… and doors. So here are some more doors for you to enjoy:





One more week of these Cornish doors and then… I’m not too sure what, probably some archive doors from Bristol.
Today is Remembrance Day, so I dedicate this post to the fallen. I will not forget.
If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s Thursday Doors post.

That’s a fine collection of doors, Steve. I like the “mind your head” door., and the ghost door. The Vine Cottage oaks like the upper portion opens. Maybe to put things on the shelf? It’s an odd arrangement but.a good photo.

I agree about the odd arrangement. I don’t think that door is used at all as a door.

Marvellous all but that ghost door really stands out. 🙂 I’m glad you got to love the place.

The green door is attractive but doesn’t have any apparent way to get in. I love the last cottage but it must be quite small because the Defender/Land Rover/? next to is appears rather large. Ghost doors are always fun. 🙂

There is something odd about the sense of scale in that first and last photo – but maybe today’s vehicles really are out of scale with yesterday’s houses!

It is a tiny cottage, but the land rover certainly dwarfs it.
