Fences of Henricus

You know how those posters of "The Doors of Dublin" are so popular? I thought I'd do a photo essay of the fences around Henricus.

Every fence is different - but every fence is a period style and illustrates a technique used for building fences in the 17th century. Most of the fences our interpreters build are either made with recycled materials found around the site or are from materials harvested on site.

    Have just found your blog, and will be subscribing to read it regularly. Thank you. I especially enjoyed the fences, as we are thinking about them a bit at the minute at our village (but in Australia).

    Hi! I just found your blog, and I wish you'd keep writing! I'm doing a similar blog, but for the living history museum I work for, Hale Farm in Ohio. www.takehistorypersonally.blogspot.com
