The White Cottage tea rooms at Little Bollington, resplendent with buddleja.
"...And laughs the immortal river still
Under the mill, under the mill?
Say, is there Beauty yet to find?
And Certainty? and Quiet kind?
Deep meadows yet, for to forget
The lies, and truths, and pain?… oh! yet
Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?"

ReplyDeleteA classic beautifully captured here. The butterfly bush seems to be in top shape for this shot! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI do love tea shops! A nice cup of tea, scones & jam would go down nicely!
