Perfect wedding at Cley Windmill

Sam and Andy's wedding pictures at Cley Windmill

With 3-4 weddings per week at the windmill , it is always great to see the different shots that the photographer captures.
On this occasion, Hannah Webster from Lifeline photography has done a beautiful job, aided, of course by a happy and handsome couple!
We wish them all the best for a wonderful life together.

Unlike that non-descript hotel you last stayed in, the handsome 18th-century Cley Windmill is entirely worthy of a picture or two (like in our featured image by Duncan~). A well-known local landmark, it looks over the famous Norfolk salt ...

Well done Dereham windmill

Congratulations to Brian and Alison and all the trustees from Dereham Mill.
They have secured generous funding for the restoration works from BIFFA
I am sure it was an arduous application process - but well worth it!

It is planned to have a grander event in the Autumn of next year when the windmill is opened to the public.

STUNNING !

Wishing you a great life together.

These stunning pictures of Sam and Andy's wedding at Cley Windmill tell their own story.
I have rarely seen such a well presented web album.
Thanks to the happy pair for allowing these to be shared on our blogg - we wish them a wonderful life together.



The photographer is Hanna from 'Lifeline' and this was her first booking as a photographer.
Take a look at the pictures !

WINDMILLS SAIL TO TOP AS MOST POPULAR BUILDINGS

a poll showing that windmills are 

our favourite type of old building !

Friday August 17,2012

By Daily Express reporter

BRITONS are blown away by windmills – which beat castles, stately homes and even cathedrals as the UK’s favourite buildings.

They got 45 per cent from voters polled while lighthouses come second with 40 per cent, followed by castles and pubs.

The survey found nostalgia plays a big part in a building’s appeal, with happy memories the main reason for being attached to places. More than half of us would make a special trip to see a favourite building, says the poll by masonry paint specialists Sandtex.
