Crewkerne is a busy little Somerset market town of around 7,000 residents. The town retains much charm from the bustle of previous centuries and has some very attractive neo-Georgian architecture in its famous honey-coloured town centre buildings.
And yes, it is charming and the houses, made of local Ham Stone, are pretty quaint:
Best find of the day:

| Bookshop! |
I could have spent HOURS in there just inhaling the scent of old books!
Slight low point of the day:
 |
| We were there to have my ring valued for auction |
On a brighter note, we found this on the way to the auction house:
 |
| Bacon sandwiches ALMOST as good as my own :) |
AND a bakery/deli that sold about 30 different types of bread as well as homemade jam:
 |
| No idea what the bread is but it looked good so I bought it. It's YUM and blackcurrant jam is my all time favorite! |
 |
| you may have seen this doorstep before |
 |
| I WANT this garden! (I have plans for it;) |
The palms are a little out of place in an English country garden (try not to break into song here ;) but they do make this great shimmering sound when the wind blows through them.
It's not looking it's best at the moment but hey, it IS October in England y'know.
