Buildings that inspire - November 2023

 Here are all your photos on the theme of "Buildings that inspire" - there are quite a few multiple ones this month:

Here are four from Gill to start with :

"Some photos of Omar Sharif’s house which he only owned for 24 hours having bought it, then played bridge and lost it, and never returned to Lanzarote again!

It’s a very quirky house built into the cave, not at all practical!"

And here are another four from Steve, who wasn't at all inspired by Clifton Cathedral!

"On the basis that it has a spire, it should have been inspiring, but a disappointment monument to someone’s ego, more aptly … in brutalist concrete" 

Here is one from Kate:

"Trip to London last week. St Paul’s  is always inspiring (or is it “ indoming”?)"

.... and a couple from Keith from the other side of the globe!

Keith - St Saviours, Karubda Village, Cairns, Australia..Anglican.... 

Keith - Sri Mariamman in Singapore 

.... and these two from Don:

Don - The quintessential English village church of St Nicolas’s, Chawton.
