Nave to south aisle #StMaryLimpley #Somerset for #StonemasonryMonday
Normally the piers and impost would occupy the depth of arch. It feels like these have been chipped away to accommodate the rebate for a door. Note the upper and lower #Pintle #LimpleySaxonArch Part II of IV
Even down to the staples and #Pintle...
#ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #PortisheadToWestonSuperMare leg. #StPaulKewstoke #FerrousFriday. The very best of #PintlesInAction
This was designed with security in mind. Rough but solid construction and a few centuries of running repairs. Plus a bonus #Pintle #DunsterCastle #Dunster #Somerset #AdoorableThursday #Thursgate #IronworkThursday #PintlesInAction
Planked, braced with cast iron straps and secured with huge rose nail studs. This is a big castle and so if you want your guests to be heard you need a serious knocker. Mouse imagine the sound from a Gothic horror movie #DunsterCastle #Dunster #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
Blocked north door #StMaryQuantoxhead #Somerset for #FerrousFriday
Try desperately to screen out the by now familiar cement mortar crime and drink in these medieval drive pintles. Not just a #Pintle, this is #PintleLove
Who would have thought! A goddess for door hinges! Mouse wonder if that means that the #Pintle (let's face it Mouse love a pintle) has its own goddess. Surely pintles count as hinges. Mouse scampered up the Tempio di Portuno steps. Basilica di Santa Maria in Cosmedin background๐ญ
Thinking today about some less well-known (but still important!) ancient #Roman deities:
Cardea: goddess of door hinges
Suadela: goddess of persuasion
Fornax: divine personification of ovens & properly-baked bread
Verminus: god who protected cattle from worms
#MythologyMonday
A quick addition to one of Mouse's favourite files... #PintlesInAction. Mouse always say; "You gotta love a #Pintle"
#AllSaintsOtterhampton #Somerset for #FerrousFriday
You've got to be a top class #Pintle to join the pantheon of #PintlesInAction and this proper fits the bill #StChristopherLympsham #Somerset for #FerrousFriday

This curious little door has its pintles on the outside, where most have them inside. That means this tiny door opens outwards probably because the stair turret is itself tiny #StPeterBleadon #Somerset #FerrousFriday #PintlesInAction #Pintle
Base of tower stair turret #StPeterBleadon #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
Nestled amid modern rainwater goods, hand rails and prison issue lighting this cutesy triangular headed door has a very unusual feature. Who's going to tell Mouse what it is?
@CathyRLowe @DarrenMcLean_uk @ianyoung33 @churchartnature @chartres_Fiona @PosyHill1 @RuthRendell1 @LoveOfGates Mouse pleased with the growing levels of #Pintle and gudgeon awareness. Mouse also got a short series of #PintlesInAction reminding us all of their 'pivotal' role (see what Mouse did there?) TTM๐ญ
@CathyRLowe @DarrenMcLean_uk @ianyoung33 @churchartnature @chartres_Fiona @PosyHill1 @RuthRendell1 The orphan pintles are usually on the outer arch of a porch, where gates or outer doors have been lost. Medieval ones are often drive pintles and so they would cause the masonry to fracture if removed. As you know, Mouse love a #Pintle TTM๐ญ

C17 #Pintle still hanging on in there, as is the door #AllSaintsKedleston #Derbyshire
It's after dark. How about one for the slender but growing file marked #PintlesInAction? It's funny what Mouse obsessed with.
Upper #Pintle and #Gudgeon combo. Old. Very, very old. South door to nave #StCongarBadgworth #Somerset #AdoorableThursday
Another Mouse curiosity. Used as an ambry to the north of the altar but is this really a recycled tiny door? Monolithic chamfered pseudo-4-centred head and a sizeable drive #Pintle inside #HolyCrossMark #Somerset #FerrousFriday
Mouse seem to be all about the little things today and that famous Mouse obsession with a good #Pintle and otherwise unnoticed details. One for the exclusive fie marked #PintlesInAction from #StLeonardRodneyStoke #Somerset #FerrousFriday #PintleInAction #BeautyInSmallThings
It's been a while since Mouse has had any #Pintle action of this quality. And adjacent? Some mason's marks or (dare Mouse utter it) ritual protection marks TTM๐ญ

@CathyRLowe @churchartnature @chartres_Fiona @PosyHill1 @CarolineIrwin3 @todbooklady @StroudStory @SarahBlick3 @Portaspeciosa @DavidMa16901372 Not often you see a triad of pintles! But then without #Pintle or #Gudgeon Mouse in high dudgeon TTM๐ญ
The lower niche of the piscina at #StMaryBreamore #Hampshire has a tiny drive #pintle to the left (facing) and another metal insertion to the right. Doubtless they caused the cracking to either side. But what would these be for in a piscina? #BreamorePiscina thread (3/4)
