The flat irons and geraniums make an interesting combination but what really intrigues me is the ‘thing’ hanging up above the window. Do you know what it was for?
Hi Eleanor, I have asked the question and this appears to be the answer – It’s a small ‘basket’ made from rushes to keep herbs in such a lavender. Equivalent to modern day air freshener.
What a lovely thought – and much nicer than the synthetic fresheners around now.

I prefer lavender to bumblebees. How did the children manage not to get stung…
What a lovely photo. I took one of the same window on our visit to the IOM for the MGP in 2013.
