Interesting look at gates. This post will have me looking at gates around town. There are four gates to my garden. Only one is interesting.

Goodness, four gates to one garden! That in itself is interesting.

In this depressed economy one takes every opportunity one can – as you can tell, one of the estate agents was successful.

I think I’d prefer looking at those cows from over my garden gate. Do they ever wander a bit too close 😏

The Urban Herd often make their way through the suburbs to munch on the grassy verges and browse on the trees. I have sometimes seen them demolishing gardens which are either un-fenced or where the gate has inadvertently been left open.

Come the hot summer days, this path is always cooled by the trees that shade it. Over time the stone surface has become uneven because of the roots, but this adds character.

Gates and fences are favourite things to photograph, although I cannot wear out the patience of my readers.

Thank you. We occasionally see herds of cattle being rounded up by a minder – usually a young man emerging from a municipal truck! Where they go to I am unsure, for they are mostly back where the were the following day.

A good range – I agree yours is the best because it is homely. Do you have cattle grids?

Cattle grids have been a feature of country roads for decades. The only suburban one here that I am aware of used to be at the combined entrance of the (now defunct) golf course and the army base. The gate has since been removed, rendering the cattle grid useless. A drive through the farming areas in the Katberg yesterday illustrated the anomaly between the signposts warning of a cattle grid ahead and the reality that there too gates have been removed and the grids have been filled in.
