Quote from this book "The lane was deep - an outpost of Devon, which was within walking distance if one took walking seriously - and for a couple of hundred yards it ran straight between banks frilled with fern, higher than one's head. Towards the end, meeting trees made it a tunnel, from whose nearer end one could see at the other a round hole of twisted light. Until one emerged, the tower was wholly concealed; to a redundancy of dramatic effect was super-added the element of surprise. New visitors, if alone, would refocus their eyes in suspended belief; or, if not, would exlaim to companions with a certain personal pride. They were off the beaten track, discriminating individualists: their contempt for the promenade at Bridgehead, and even for the nearer cosiness of Barlock, knew no bounds." opening paragraph Secondhand booksellers |
