At my visit time, a silhouette just made it through the half open door, while another at ground floor, just passed by. Still I was able to catch an enigmatic young woman as she made it pass the top part.

Magnificent, old deserted house with multiple gables. Located atop a mountain along NC18S of Sparta, NC. Cattle have rubbed down parts of the old porch or veranda on right side. An electric fence prevented seeing the back side, but the design seems to have had porch wrap all way around. The left side seems to have gotten the same cow rub.
In its day, one can imagine close friends/family sitting and sipping around the porch at sunset.
It is now surrounded by fences for the cattle and electric ones along the road for humans, I suppose. I'd like to hope the owners are considering a re-fit. It would be a shame to let so grand a dame wither.
All the front houses of Bryggen have been rented out as commercial shops catering to the tourists and the townspeople. But at the back are these wondrous well-preserved wood houses that jump out of your senses. They are an amalgam of tradition, function and drama.

Colorful houses in the town Icod de Los Vinos on Tenerife :)
Smile on Saturday - theme: "Vivid orange" :)
Icod de los Vinos is a municipality in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife on the island of Tenerife, in the Canary Islands (Spain). It is located on a continuous smooth slope that stretches from the extensive forests of Canary Island Pine down to the sea, and has almost 10 km of shoreline. The city is surrounded by fertile valley, and its streets and corners offer views of the volcanic mountain Teide, as well as dense pine forests which descend from its summit to Icod's higher-altitude districts. Its banana plantations, orchards and vineyards give rise to a lively commerce. In Icod, close to the Church of San Marcos, stands a famous dragon tree, which is reputed to be a thousand years old. While no study seems to have confirmed such longevity for the tree (dracos do not produce annual rings with which to tell their ages; the tree is more likely to have an age in the hundreds of years), it is the long-time symbol of Icod.

This old building operates as a cafe and does a good trade from walkers that venture out in Ilkley. Dating back to 1700 is was built to accommodate a spa with three plunge pools. One his still in use today.
Not the most desirable perch he's on but it’s the best photo I’ve managed yet of a House Finch so I guess you take what you can get.
