The Royal Crescent is a sweeping row of 30 Grade I listed terraced houses in Bath, England, renowned as one of the greatest examples of Georgian architecture in the UK. Designed by architect John Wood the Younger and built between 1767 and 1775.

I'll end this week with a personal image. My youngest daughter and her partner as he surprised her with a marriage proposal on the beach in Tenerife last year. She accepted and there were tears (of happiness) all round.

Two substantial figures of a man and woman in clothing, facing out to sea, standing on a large-scale tapered platform structure, which is secured on top of the recently assembled rock breakwater. Whilst the figures are based on people from real life, the models were used as a starting point only and are not recognisable. The anonymous figures, simply clothed – a man in a flat cap and a woman in jeans, face the horizon with the sea lashing at their feet. The 'Couple' are secured to a steel plinth and integrated into the breakwater so that, during high tides, they give the impression of standing on the water’s surface.
