Combe Martin - Again!
Photo Information
Firstly, I must apologise to Eddie Kilmartin (kilmas2) for posting a photo that was taken just a few paces away from his view of this gorgeous village and posted just recently. On seeing Eddie's take I decided to go back and rework my own effort; it only really needed a small increase in color temperature to put some life into it. Eddie chose to take his shot down at river level whereas I took the easy way out and remained at road level thus suffering the intense shadow of the tree! A similar view in Wikipedia was taken a few paces further to the right and, IMHO, eclipses both our views!
My 3 x great grandfather was appointed Rector of Castle Combe on November 29, 1811 and Rector of nearby Yatton Keynell in 1822. Holding the title in two parishes no doubt boosted his income!
