I guess we call it gingerbread here but whatever it is called it is beautiful on a house or even an old barn. You have a way that makes a shot interesting. MB
Funny name! This is reminiscent of Eastern Europe wooden architecture, at least I think it is. I'm not too sure anymore. Whatever, it's gorgeous and I would love to come home to it every day!
Thanks, E.G. I didn't mean to give you more work...thought you might know. I'd never heard the term before...which really doesn't mean anything...but...
I'd prefer 'Ginger Bread'... I have made some like these when I worked in a joiners shop.... it was one of the many things that we made I can see each time I visit the town centre... I still get pleasure 25 years on looking up and thinking I had a part in making them...
I had never heard bargeboard, either, but either way it is lovely. Though any time I see work like this, I think about how much work goes into painting it alone.
Thanks for visiting my little corner of the world. I hope you enjoyed your stay here. Please leave a comment before you leave so I can visit your blog.

ReplyDeleteI'm with Hilda--A rose by any other name... Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWe call it gingerbread here. Never heard of the other term. , , until now. Heard of gingerbread in fairy tales. . . and I don't mean gingerbread man.
ReplyDeleteVery nice shot - love the details!!

ReplyDeleteWell, that's very nice, but where in the world did the term "bargeboard" come from?
ReplyDeleteWhatever it's called ... this is LOVELY ;--)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Gingerbread for sure. It is a lovely shot.
ReplyDeleteIt is like 4 different styles of roofing in a one small place - nice details!
ReplyDeleteWonderful detail!

Jacob,
ReplyDeleteWikipedia says: Bargeboard (probably from Medieval Latin bargus, or barcus, a scaffold. ;-)

ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
This is an interesting mix with the bricks, wood work and asphalt tiles. The wood work is lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty details!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice picture of the girls reflecting in the water !
