The simple and quiet Largo da Lameira, in Mosteiró

Here are a couple shots for the #landscapephotography category in the photography contest by Hive account@juliank

This is Largo da Lameira (Lameira Square), located at the town of Mosteiró, Vila do Conde. Every Wednesday morning and on the first Sunday of each month, there's supposed to be a street market here. I haven't had the opportunity to check that out yet but, one day, I will.

At the centre of the square there's a monument to a local priest, Agostinho Antunes de Azevedo, who lived here from 1876 to 1943.

Father Agostinho was not only a catholic priest but also an historian, who has dedicated himself to gather the History of the region of Vila do Conde and Vale do Ave.

Also a farmer by instinct, Father Agostinho contributed to the development of the Agriculture in Maia, Vila do Conde and in the entire region of Entre Douro e Minho. For his services, he was given the award of "Comenda da Ordem de Mérito Agrícola" (Commendation of the Order of Agricultural Merit.)

As an author, historian and chronicler, Father Agostinho was elected a member of the Academia Portuguesa de História (Portuguese Academy of History).

Father Agostinho has passed away in Mosteiró, in 14/07/1943, and remains buried at the parish's cemetery.
