I love the older architecture. they don't make buildings like that anymore.

True. If you check closely while touring some of the great old churches in England, many of which were built around the time of the Norman Invasion, 1066 AD, you will see humorous little stone figures on the columns. I remember seeing one of a man picking his nose with his finger inserted up to the second joint. Great tricksters, those Brits.

Hidden gems like that are always so great. Hope you spot more treats.
