A Leaping Roebuck

Warwick, England ~ February 17, 2010

The Roebuck Inn

The lighting was poor, and we were walking quickly up Smith Street to reach Warwick Castle before closing. Despite the rush and the unhelpful sky, tavern signs all over the UK make compelling targets for roving photographers on the prowl for animal art. The link above is about roe deer. It looks like this tavern needs a good web site. I found lots of basic listings on food and drink listings, but nothing worth linking to.

White Horse

Oxford, England ~ February 18, 2010

52 Broad Street

I'm continuing "England Week" here and on Tapirgal's Daily Image. I thought of cropping this photo to give it a cleaner look, but I absolutely love all of the window details and the lamp in the lower right. So, please bear with the clutter and enjoy the details. The White Horse is across the street from the famous Sheldonian Theatre. We were on our way to the Ashmolean Museum (on a mission, and it was closing soon) and we didn't go inside the White Horse. Too bad, it sounds like a great pub. Every inch of Oxford was a photo, and every inch was beckoning.
