Stopping at Davant to Look at Bricks

Sugar has an idea to take some photos of the brick work at the entrance gate of Davant Plantation. We head over that way and approach from a side road where we see a construction sign and what looks to be a golf course being built. Later we check the Internet and we see that it’s true. (Not a fan of golf courses, so we’ll be checking in from time to time to watch the progress.)

Anyway, now we’re at the entrance gate of Davant.

To the right…

To the left…

The main pillars are perhaps 7 feet high. The open-work walls are not quite as tall and are double-thick.

The brick walls themselves are built in a gentle, undulating line.

  




Did anyone else think they saw fingerprints in the bricks?
