There were intriguing little side-streets of columbage (half-timbered) houses and pretty flower boxes.

Fources
We drove an hour south into the Gers department to visit the medieval town of Fources.
It is an enchanting, circular village, wrapping itself around a cool, green square of plane trees.
There were intriguing little side-streets of columbage (half-timbered) houses and pretty flower boxes.

Looks like a beautiful town, Tony. Were there any interesting looking shops or restaurants ?
