Oh, how lovely - trend setter! They look great. Wonder if he'll copy your limewash and copperas too?

They look very good. Did they have to be cast especially? I should think they were quite pricey.

Here is something I wrote about my railings when they were being installed c. 2002

The finial designs were suggested by Tony Smith, the man who made the railings, based on originals in his collection. He is also doing my neighbour's railings. I forget how much it all cost now, but it was less than I had anticipated.

They look wonderful, Nigel. Is there a missing finial in the middle of their run?

Yes, but it's still work in progress.

Lovely, maybe they will be inspired by the new house colour, and then the rest of the road will want to change too.

Dumb question, probably, but why the gap near the junction with your property>
