Cowley 47521 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Apologies if I’ve posted this already, I don’t think I have but I’m not entirely sure. Anyway it was my turn to pick the colour scheme for our garden cabin this time… I don’t what you think you’re seeing but I can assure you that it’s just a coincidence. 😉 14 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that parking area belongs to the cottage, and if so will the owners find that rail users think its there for their benefit?
