I can't get over how worn-out or crude these are. Looks like a whole colony of bats could get in the door on the left. I don't see any hinges so I am guessing these are, more or less, just old lumber stuck up to keep most of the stuff outside from leaking inside. I don't think I would want to enter through either one.
These are doors to cellars, sometimes hotly disputed as title deeds may not exist and people go by the "30 year" notion: if one has used a cellar continuously for 30 years one may claim it as one's own !
Another great photo. I see you love showing us doors and some are really beautiful.

ReplyDeleteThese doors are wonderful, Jilly.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for mentioning my blog :-))
I didn't visit your blog earlier because I am sick. I had to go to the doctor's. Mauvais début d'année, mais ça va passer vite, j'espère.
Definitely makes me think of centuries gone by.
