  Noble friends,

BBC recently featured this short piece about the deterioration of 
cobbled sidewalks (as we call them) in the medieval village of Dunster 
in Somerset: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-11569523 . 
I'm a bit dubious about the pavements being medieval, and think they are 
more likely to be 18th century, but they do lend ambiance to this 
charming little place.

For more on Dunster, try the village web site: 
http://www.dunster.org.uk/ . That little market stall is really neat and 
quite medievel, and of course so is the castle on the hill. Dunster 
Castle was home to the Lutterell family (famous for the Luttrell Psalter).

Kind regards,
