Chick Lit

It wasn't until late on Sunday that I looked around and saw this row of bewildered creatures lined-up on the books. An Easter installation by Youngest Boy. So, a belated Happy Easter to everybody.

About Me

Peter Ashley: I am a designer, writer and photographer who spends all his time looking at England, particularly buildings and the countryside. But I have a leaning towards the slightly odd and neglected, the unsung elements that make England such an interesting place to live in. I am the author and photographer of over 25 books, in particular Unmitigated England (Adelphi 2006), More from Unmitigated England (Adelphi 2007), Cross Country (Wiley 2011), The Cigarette Papers (Frances Lincoln 2012), Preposterous Erections (Frances Lincoln 2012) and English Allsorts (Adelphi 2015)
