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.

A 13th century clock-tower dominates.
