Doors 214 - Bristol street art and graffiti doors

A quick one today, as I will be in an all-day meeting in London. This post was prepared last night. To make things easier on myself, I am recycling doors that have already appeared on Natural Adventures in my street art posts. I hope you enjoy this selection from February to May 2022:

OK, so this is not a door, but it had once been a garage entrance, so it counts as a ghost door

This stunning piece isn't painted on a door, but in a ghost window - I felt it was worth sharing anyway.

My Dog Sighs, Upfest 22, Bristol, May 2022

There is a ghost door at the top of the steps.

These ghost doors, above, were once magnificent gateways for the Bristol tram system, long since gone and very much missed. The original doors were then converted to windows, except for the middle one of five and then eventually they were all bricked up when the building was vacated, and remained that way for decades.

That's it for another week. I hope I get time to complete my Croatia doors next time. May I wish you all a wonderful weekend ahead'

If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton's Thursday Doors post.
