Thezan

Thezan Les Beziers, where we have just paid the deposit on our house, is a “Village Circulade” these date from Roman times and were built on hills, for defensive purposes, and the road spirals like a snails shell to the apex, usually the church.
The picture is a (fairly poor) arial shot of Thezan, if you look at the apex of the hill carefully you will see the church, with trees around it. This is the car park of the church and our presbytery is just opposite these trees.
It can all be seen very clearly on Google Earth.

or better still thanks to the help of daughter Caitriona here is the Google Earth view.
If you look very carefully at this picture the presbytery is at six o clock on the circle directly around the church at the centre.
It is the only house with a dark blob (the tree) in the back yard.

    Congratulations Martin, Sile and Family, I clicked on your site to look up your wonderful Mushroom soup and have really enjoyed reading all about your new venture, so much so it is 17.51 and the kids are all waiting for their dinner!!!
    Well done and the best of luck in France.
    Thank you for all the wonderful meals we had in your restaurant, we have yet to have a meal that comes anywhere close to your wonderful cooking, I am sure we will talk about you and the restaurant for many years to come.
    Kind regards
    Lorraine Cretzan
