NZ1986 : Cast iron decoration
taken 13 years ago, near to Morpeth, Northumberland, England

Cast iron decoration
All the houses on the South (presumably older) side of Howard Street had these small cast iron fittings beside their front doors. I do not know what they are for,initially I assumed they were boot or shoe scrapers but there is a space above them inside the wall which would suggest a down-pipe of some sort.
