Where's Mr Peggotty?

Camera: 1979 Olympus Trip 35
Film: 35mm Fujifilm (ISO 200)
Location: Porlock Weir, Somerset

Date taken: 2 May 2023

This little row of cottages makes me think of when David Copperfield went to live in Yarmouth with Mr Peggotty, even though his house was a beached boat. The  boat house Dickens describes fascinates me!

A man outside the pub was talking to someone and said that his grandfather (I think) was born and raised in the end house with lots of siblings. How times have changed. I doubt a hardworking fisherman with a huge family could afford to live there now. Love how the end house has kept its thatched roof too.
