Here’s my contribution to “Thursday Doors” on the Norm 2.0 blog, some great contributions over there, worth checking out.
It’s been over 20 years since I visited Stamford in Lincolnshire so on Tuesday I jumped on a train, and 3 stops and 40 minutes later I arrived at Stamford. It was a lovely sunny day but cold.
Candlesticks
The first door that caught my eye was this curved restaurant door. The menu looked really good, including a bottle of wine for £650.oo ! The food prices were far more reasonable.
The Blossoms Were Out
Georgian
Most of the buildings in Stamford are constructed using this lovely honey coloured stone.
The Pub Door
Broad & Slim
Pink or Cerise ?
A Bit Of Symmetry
Red & Stone
I thought this door had quite an unusual design.
Moon Door
Green & Stone
Wall Clock
St John The Baptist Church Door
Really enjoyed the visit to Stamford, the people were very friendly and I had some of the best Fish & Chips I’ve had in a long time. Definitely be going back.
Nice ones! The curved door and the Broad and Slim ones are my favourites in this batch 🙂

Oh lovely. Corner doors are always a hit, but that first set with the curve — what a find!

very nice selection, that bright pink one makes me wonder who lives there and what they’re like, I bet they’re interesting just from their choice of paint!

Yes me too, it really stood out from all the others. Probably a bit of a rebel. :>)

Really nice collection. I think that top photo may be the first rounded door. Handsome.
