The stone from the area, called the Cotswold stone is a lovely honey-colour when it's new and then it mellows with age. You can see the colour on parts of the house.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015603838340372502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4865166082152058468.post-40010158261369654332015-07-08T21:16:31.216+02:002015-07-08T21:16:31.216+02:00Thank you, Lissa.
