The gate...

...to the château.

All looking a bit overgrown - it is my understanding that the elderly lady who lives in the château sold her house 'en viager' which means the new owners pay her a pension and maintain the house until she dies. I wonder if they ever imagined she would live so long!

If you're interested in the concept there's an english language film called My Old Lady starring Maggie Smith, Kevin Kline and Kristen Scott Thomas. You can read more about it here
