Fanlights

I often marvel at Georgian architecture, including fanlights, hence my blip from Coates Crescent.

The architectural device of having a window or “light” above a doorway to allow light into an otherwise gloomy hall or passageway became popular in the early 18th century. The fanlight became so successful during the Georgian period that it is iconic of the architectural style, forming the focal point and showpiece of the house frontage. It was widely used and can be found in London, Edinburgh, Dublin, Liverpool, Bristol and all the Georgian towns, even spreading to North America, and "colonial" architecture in South Africa and Australia.

Happy Burns Night, by the way.
