Quite the Do-er-up-er with bonus cones, #Caernarfon #Wales #cones
A straight on photo of the front of a white painted building, to the left is a 6 pane window where the lower pains are painted grey and the white painted woodwork is showing the grey undercoat and missing rotten wood. Rust streaks stain the wall from brackets that once held a now missing roof over the door. There is a selection of traffic cones against the green stained lower section of the wall.

A single person stood on a grassy outcrop on a clifftop makes a dark figure with nothing but the sea behind them
