About 2 hours drive south of Muscat is this beautiful deserted beach - at least it was at this time - on the northeast coast of the Gulf of Oman.

You have to look for it but there is a white wall at the end of the beach!

HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.

This farm building at the Hohenlohe Freilandmuseum Schwäbisch Hall at Wackershofen is almost 500 years old. The ground floor was used to keep animals while the family lived above on the first floor. It was from Zaisenhausen in the Hohenlohe-Franken region north of Schwäbisch Hall until it was dismanțled to be brought to the museum.

Often mistaken for Leicester castle because of its medieval-looking castellated frontage this is actually Leicester Category B Prison on Welford Road opened in 1828! The real Leicester Castle dates from 1068 becoming a royal residence in the 14th & 15th century but only the Great Hall survives today and it's not here! The Tigers Rugby stadium is visible far right BTW.

The journalist William Cobbett, who wrote about his journeys around England in the early 19th century, criticised the people of Leicester for being proud of their new prison, feeling that it would be more praiseworthy to have an absence of crime!

The last public execution at Leicester Prison took place on 25 July 1856, when an estimated crowd of 25,000 gathered to watch the hanging in front of this gatehouse.

HWW to everyone. Have a great day.

Chichester cathedral was consecrated in 1108 and following a disastrous fire was rebuilt and reconsecrated in 1199. The spire was built in 1402 but collapsed in 1861 due to subsidence and was rebuilt. The cathedral spire is the third tallest in England and acts as a landmark for travellers.

Attracted to the lights! Silhouettes in the tunnel that runs from Calke Abbey to the brewhouse.

The site was an Augustinian priory from the 12th century until its dissolution by Henry VIII. The present building, named Calke Abbey in 1808, was never actually an abbey but is a Baroque mansion built between 1701 and 1704.

Kinver Edge is a high sandstone ridge and hill fort which overlooks the dramatic red sandstone rock houses.

These homes were carved into friable Permian-aged dune sandstone probably in the 17-18th century. The restored Holy Austin houses are now owned by the National Trust & show how life was lived in the rock until the 1960s. With a tea room on top it's a great place to sit and admire the view.

The Guildhall is a timber framed building, with the earliest part dating from c. 1390. It once acted as the town hall for the city until the current one was commissioned in 1876.

It is reputed that William Shakespeare appeared here in the late 16th century. Part of the Shakespeare legend is that Shakespeare first came across the local tale of King Leir whilst appearing at the Guildhall and this inspired him to write his own play King Lear.

For a population of only around 1500 Kingussie has an impressive 1893 vintage stone-built station on the Highland line between Perth and Inverness.

Facilities include a pre-1915 Edwardian post box (notice the ER VII) although whether these days it is regularly emptied I'm not sure and a Victorian water fountain although that looks defunct - the vandals took the handles!.
