Looks familiar...
Nice work.
The "Secret Nuclear Bunker" is a standing joke in the district... I suppose it
was secret once upon a time now it's just a minor tourist attraction, driven
past it many times - never been in.
Describing Greensted as a town is even more bizarre... :-)

Ah, you've spurred me to finally start uploading stuff from a trip to
the UK last year; same place, some similar shots, some different ones
(but very similar weather.. :) ).

I like the way the directions to get there say "...drive to Greensted,
turn into town, it's the second right past the sign to the secret
nuclear bunker".
(some of the bits of wood in there date back to 845AD, which makes it
the oldest wooden church in Europe)
