Behind the hedge

Behind The Hedge
This building at Mulsta in Tungelsta, from 1893 was known as a Länsmansboställe, as was the building that stood here before it. For a few centuries many Vassals lived here. I pass by here a couple of times every week and have photographed the building many times before.

Winter at Mulsta

Winter at Mulsta
I took this photo while out on a Winter promenade earlier in the week. I can tell you that the view looks very different now, three days later.

Winter in Sweden

Winter in Sweden
We had a cold start to the week today. -15C. Frost everywhere. It would have been a good day for Winter Photography but I had to get my mother to and from the hospital so no photos today. I took this photo a couple of days ago. It shows a building that was once known as Mulsta Länsmansboställe. For a few centuries many Vassals lived here. You might have seen it before as I sometimes stop for a photo here on my walks 7bike rides to the old tree.

Wintertime

Wintertime
This is one of the places that I will always take another photo of. It is a house at Mulsta in Tungelsta. It has an interesting story. For a few centuries this was the house where the local Vassal lived. This version of the "Länsmansboställe" dates back to 1893, a previous building was destroyed in a fire. I have showed it you before and even told you about a murder that the policeman that lived here back in 1853 solved.

Winter VS. Spring

Mulsta

The Impressive Entrance

Two views of the Mulsta Länsmansboställe and the two magnificent trees that makes the entrance a bit special. Mulsta is an old village in Tungelsta. Länsmansboställe is a very old word that translated to English means something like the place where the Vassal lived. And for centuries this was where the local police lived. The old building was destroyed in a fire, and the one you see to the right here was built in 1893. I shot the winter photo two days ago and the spring view is from May of last year.

Skywatch Friday.

Tree Framed Entrance

Oak Framed Entrance

If you look closely at this photo showing the populus framed entrance to the former Vassal's place at Mulsta, you will probably notice the difference compared with the photo I took here just six weeks ago.

Skywatch Friday.

A Winter Sky

Oak Framed Entrance

These two trees makes for an impressive entrance to a historic place at Mulsta in Tungelsta. Especially now with all the frost. The yellow building dates back to 1893, and was known as a Länsmansboställe, as was the building that stood here before it. For a few centuries many Vassals lived here, among them the police officer in charge of that murder story I told you about last summer. Today it is a private residence. Mulsta as a farm dates back to the Iron Age, that was when Tungelsta was known as Thungirsta.

Skywatch Friday.
