ABC Wednesday - W is for Wintry Woodley


Woodley is roughly half way between Hyde and Stockport and one wintry day earlier this month I went there on a photo-hunt. The parish church is St Marks.


The drinking fountain at the bottom of George Lane dates from 1881. It was recommissoned after a restoration project under the initiative of Ian Simpson and the Woodley Community Council on 23rd April 1988.


More W posts can be seen on the ABC Wednesday Anthology blog.

Others can be found via the ABC Wednesday with Mister Linky which carries a registry of participants.

    Winter sun is so crisp and clear. Another pretty little hopefully never vandalised church.

    The shadow of the tap adds drama t an everyday piece of street art.
