Round House

A 'companion piece' to yesterday's Slug House.

Another 'dream house' I pass regularly - albeit in this case with solid historical roots (the original circular lodge gate to the House of Manar, near Inverurie).

And again, another on which all work seems to have ceased for many months now. Another victim of these financially troubled times?

I often wonder if the blacked out windows with white painted cross-frames ("Pitt's Pictures") were a direct response to an actual Window Tax imposed in the area - or some form of contemporary (or later) affectation.
