I used to live about a mile and a half from Castle Combe when I was a child - thanks for bringing back the memories!

I think we may have driven through this town. Or one that looks very much like it. Actually, as you probably already know, they ALL sort of look like that :-)

Congrats on the top 10!

I really like this image. I pause each time I view it. I'm trying to understand what the subject is doing. Is that little cupboard for milk delivery?

The stone texture is so sharp and the curve in the road adds a soft touch to the square.

what a lovely place! I spent a couple of weeks once in a village of Montacute, not far from this, and it looked so very similar!

Oh man. This brings back such great memories. We spent 10 days there a couple of years ago. Magical place. Hope you'll share the town.
