The Brace of Pheasants by A90Six
Featured in Live, Love, Dream 5^th^ Nov, 2008.
This is a beautiful thatched pub/restaurant, The Brace of Pheasants in Plush, Dorset. They have a wonderful menu and I was about to eat there, but, unfortunately, arrived at 15:05 and the kitchens closed at 15:00. Oh well, maybe next time.
The pub ‘sign’ is not a sign at all but an illuminated glass cabinet containing a brace of stuffed pheasants – a cock and a hen. I don’t know how long the glass box has been up there, but I know it wouldn’t be five minutes outside a London pub before some senseless yob would throw a brick at it.

It’s a lovely shot and a wonderful part of the County I love, Dorset. Gorgeous light again.
Thanks Sid! It’s a great place, if you go inside you could end up chatting for hours and forget all about who you came with!

AHHHH OOOOOOO!!!!! HERE we gooooo!!!!!!! Yes, I’ll just stop in here for a spot of bitters. Or … that’s probably not how you say it, is it? REGARDLESS … GREAT shot … this is exactly what I am talking about … these amazing bits of architecture and history and the nostalgia we Americans feel deep in our souls … nostalgia for something we’ve never seen in this lifetime … for what was, but never for us. Keep ’em coming!!!!!!!
Thanks Lois! Just a sneaky side view to be getting on with!

Nicely done T – I like the angle of yoru shot. Very charming little place. It really looks like somebody’s house, which I’m sure at one point it was. What a wonderful find T. Cheers, S.
Thanks Sandra! I’m not sure if it was ever a house, but maybe. It once had its own skittle alley, but that and some other bits have been turned into bedrooms, which can be rented out for bed & breakfast. It’s quite a big old place really.
