|   Give the dog a ball - Kirkby Lonsdale, Cumbria UK
in Unique Weathervanes A rather stylish house has a round tower attached with a good vane on the top. It looks like a collie type dog, looking curiously at a ball. The dog's eye is cut out to give white. The ball may be something else - hard to tell! posted by:  martlakes location: United Kingdom date approved: 02/19/2008 last visited: never |
