Thursday Doors: Tranquility Base again
For the uninitiated, ‘Tranquility Base’ is the nom de plume, as it were, of the little hamlet where we live: eighteen houses (including five holiday homes) and three streetlights – count’em.
Amazingly, there are (were) still some portals that haven’t been posted on here: until now.
Q: When is a door not a door? A: When it used to be:
This is on Paulette’s barn, as is this:
All of which forms a piece with the main house:
Much of the hamlet used to belong to the local sabotier (clog-maker), hence the fact that there are more than one of these signs
At the bottom of the garden behind the house currently inhabited by my old mum is this mysterious, disused shed:
But by far the best of this crop is here, which for years has been hidden behind a sheet of corrugated iron:

A great series. I loved the red gate, the one hung with greenery and the last is very painterly.
Wonderful doors to discover today!
Great doors! Does that bottom door still open? I’d love to know what’s behind there. Norm’s blog is so fun, – this week I did windows, but will have to get back to doors.
So much character and texture in these. I like the last one because it seems to be an odd size. #12 with its mix of wood, iron, and glass is beautiful too.
Love how they finished the white wall! Wow, that gate looks an American pink:):)
Wow, these are great doors.

Love the lace curtains in the main house door!
Very typically rural French.
So these are the last unknown doors where you live? Alas! They are beautiful indeed. How many doors does the village count in total? 🙂
This is in France? Very pretty – it reminds me of the place we stayed in Normandy.
