Roses and Castles #citydailyphoto



Roses & Castles is the name for the colourful art that was used to decorate working narrowboats in the 19th century, and is still carried on as a arts and craft tradition today. Photo taken on the Bridgewater Canal.

    Now, isn't that pretty? I do love the traditional painting. We see it on the Leeds-Liverpool too.
