A high rise home?
This building has two doors on the second floor, apparently with no means of easy access. The left one not only has a handle but a Yale lock too. The answer to this oddity lies with the fresh stone wall below the doors: a few years ago this building had an upper floor outside them, but which has now been demolished. Hopefully the occupants remember...

The leftovers from the service
Pilton was served by this post office for almost all the twentieth century before finally stamping its last letter. These two relics remain to keep a little bit of the history.

Some colourful but short trees
At the junction opposite the pub is a small walled patch of land. In it are some attractively coloured trees and shrubs. However, a plaque on the wall refers to a commemorative tree planted in 1897 - which, unless it is a really slow grower, must have gone from this spot. See Image] for a look at the plaque.
