I'm hoping you also took a shot to show us the size of the door this thing is attached to.

It's actually attached to 8 foot galvanised farm gate, on the edge of the Kerrowdown Estate.

Thank you, with farm gates you need this level of adjustment to get ‘em to hang right.

I like that, the contrast in the texture of the metal parts and the wooden parts, especially the grain in the wood and the thread of the bolt, as nice contrasts. And on top of all that hardness is a wisp of a spiders web. Good spot

Thank you.

No it’s called keeping a job in hand... when Lady Kerrowdown asks what I’m doing, I show her all the things on the list.
