A2. Visitors to Suffolk have a wealth of medieval churches to explore but they also shouldn't miss some of the quirky domestic architecture found in villages like Lavenham #TRLT

I know there's a few pumping stations - there's one over in Hounslow/Brentford that's now a museum too I believe #trlt

A2. Our Lady of the Snow Catholic Church in Sun Valley, Idaho by @McLaughlinArch, who also is the architect of @Blanket_Bay in NZ. Very interesting to see the similarities! #TRLT

A3 The pyramidal Palace of Peace and Reconciliation in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, is quite unusual. Black on one floor, white on another, an opera house inside and - to misquote Reeves and Mortimer - some doves from above, too. @loyaltytravels #TRLT

A3 Has to be the Pineapple, Dunmore. The 4th Earl of Dunmore was governor of Virginia, where sailors used to stick a pineapple on a gatepost to announce their return home. On being forced home in 1777, Dunmore added the biggest pineapple of the lot to mark his own return. #TRLT

A3: On a trip last autumn to the Drôme department in #France, I discovered Le Palais Idéal. A remarkable feat of architecture, built by the village postman over decades by picking up pebbles while on his post round. He was over 80 years old when he finished it. #TRLT

A3: How about the Shell Grotto in Margate? No-one knows for sure how or why this came to be, or how some 4.6 million British shells were spirited here to create the elaborate wall designs. But it is spectacular! #TRLT

replying to @BradtGuides @BradtGuides Amersham in the #Chilterns used to have a pub called the Pineapple. In an outstanding example of counterintuitive annoying marketing, a sign a few feet past it read YOU HAVE JUST PASSED THE PINEAPPLE #Ouch #TRLT
