I love seeing these thatched buildings, reminds me so much of growing up in Dorset, in fact my schoolmate Dave became a master thatcher and did very well out of it. We used to cycle around the Purbecks and there was a beautiful thatched cottage as you rode into Studland village from Corfe Castle, maybe that's what gave him the inspiration?
I’m hugely fortunate that this is my local. It’s not officially the closest pub to my doorstep, but it’s within 3 miles, and I rarely choose to go to any of the others… why would you when ‘The Thatch’ is so close?
I suspect that my steeds are possibly even bigger fans of the place, as somehow, no matter where I’ve been, they route me home via the finest watering hole on the Wirral.
In the summer sun, ice cold beer in hand, those benches are paradise.

All your photos remind me of my youth, I was brought up in Weston Favell. My parents still live on Weston Way.
There's quite a few thatched places in Weston Favell. I'll have to go for a pedal around there and take some pics 😊

I only know it for a big Tesco and a good Chinese buffet.
