This is the entrance to a large country property tucked away off the main mountain road. I thought it looked charming, and it has many features that although not in use today, are still in place, and a reminder of bygone days.

I drew myself up to all of my 1,64cent, and them some, by standing on tiptoes but was unable to see over the wall.

The bell covered by a little red tiled roof.

The bell pull.

Even at a distance I was unable to show you the true height of this huge tree.

Typical blue and white tiles with the name of the house, which is "Olive Tree's House"

WOW!!! so impressive!!!! all of it!
It looks to be a beautiful place with an impressive entrance! I love the bell, but I would be sorely tempted to ring it just for fun!
Thanks for sharing!
Hi!!! beautiful place.. Lovely pictures.. Have a great week..
Muy bonito. Un beso.
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful old gate. It is really something. Love the old bell and the pull, the tile and that marvelous old tree.
So, I am assuming you can't get through the gate. Too bad, I bet it'd be a grand tour.
Yes, that tree is colossal!! Magnificent and Majestic all rolled into one.
Love the bell pull. Well, everything today is great.
WoW!!! what an interesting place and lovely images. love, love, love that tree!!!!!
I would like to visit it personally
What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL gate...just a gorgeous find!!...:)JP
It definitely is a beautiful place Sonjia! The last time I saw a tree this big was when I went to California... Excellent photography!
A very impressive place! Love the pathway and the giant tree.
Hello, what a lovely place and beautiful big trees. Wonderful post and photos. Happy Thursday, enjoy your day!
Lovely images. Thank you for your visit to my blog. :) It's nice to meet you.
That's s simply huge tree. I wonder how many children have rung that bell and then run off to hide. It looks very tempting.
Wonderful place and lovely images!
What a great fence/gate find. I love all the details like the bell and the bell pull. That tree was amazing and the gate itself was really lovely.
Your photos are beautiful. Love the huge tree. Have a nice weekend. ;)
Oh, my goodness, that tree just makes the shot!
So many nice details there! I love those tiles and that bell.
It was not to watch the house. Guarded from the eyes of the people. I like a bell. Regards.
Wow, what a fantastic place and the tree...amazing! Always so nice visiting you and your lovely blog!
Love from Titti
That is the best fences I've ever seen. I love the tree.
As you say memories of a style of living no longer part of the modern world.
