My Grandfather, Arthur Richard Huston, enjoyed watercolour painting - a hobby which he practised from childhood until not long before his death. I thought it would be nice to post copies of some of those paintings on this blog.
These are four Lincolnshire views - Boston Stump, Lincoln Cathedral, the Woods at Ravendale and Saltfleetby Mill. (This last painting belongs to my cousin Shelagh in Canada)
Burgh Castle is a Roman Fort just up the road from where Aunt Ethel (my grandmother's sister) lived near Great Yarmouth, and St. Albans Abbey is where Aunt Mary (Granddad's sister) worshipped for many years.
I believe this view is Box Hill - presumably the one near Corsham, Wiltshire, where they lived at one time.

I was puzzled by the last one until I read the caption; because it doesn't look like Lincolnshire at all. I've visited some of these sites, and even stayed on a campsite at Burgh Castle (Norfolk) a few years ago.
