Pond Ladder

Derelict Sunday. 60plus for Marlieske.

We joined a group tour to circumnavigate the many square kilometres outside the Monastery de S. Martinho de Tibaes. There are many structures seen and stories heard along the tour. But "way, way back " in the woods is a pond that must have many interesting stories to tell. This 17th-century complex continues to astound us. 

I submit what appears to be the exit ladder from the pond. And a few more glimpses of the bigger picture.
