For years I have been walking past this folly in a nearby front garden without giving it a further look. I knew it was there, that was all.
Recently something caught my eye: the inhabitants of the house had placed an old bike next to it. That was the moment that I looked twice and realized it could be an addition to my doors photos. And of course a candidate for Thursday Doors. So some late afternoon when I passed it with my camera, I took this shot.
The ‘house’ looks very tidy and I wonder if they close the doors when it rains or when the night has fallen. Maybe I have to pay it another visit at a later hour than 5.06 PM…
Charming! 🙂

What a cute idea. I wonder, too, whether they close it. Guess you’ll have to venture out in bad weather and report back. 🙂

Hm, maybe, just maybe I will have a look one rainy night. Don’t promise anything, though. 😉

This is amazing. And to think it’s for real as it looks like a professional set-up in a studio. Well spotted.

At first I thought it was a rather strange item in the garden, but I have grown fond of it and whenever I pass, I look if they have changed something, like the bike.

That is an interesting focal point for their garden. This placing of old rusted bikes in gardens is a popular thing in my area near the beach.

Did you ever take a picture of such a bike? Friends of ours who have lived in a flat near the beach told us that things in general tended to rust, maybe only here in Holland, because of the salt water. Or maybe in your parts too?
