Just for a change I went round a few local streets to capture the name plaques on Victorian houses and a couple of fill ins. Made for an interesting compilation. I didn't get accosted by anyone for poking a telephoto at their houses fortunately!

What a great idea and interesting to see the different styles, it could make a good framed picture.

Thanks Simon, that is what I had in mind. It was great that this was just two streets in Rugby (plus the Post Office).

Very interesting! I have always thought it odd (quaint, interesting, puzzling...) that in the UK so many houses have actual names and those names are part of the address. It's not common here in the US, we have boring, prosaic house "numbers" instead.
