Having
nothing better to do I thought I would add a few oddments.
Entrance

Drilling
Driving trials at Lowther before it was abandoned although they restarted last year.
The
water obstacles are always the most interesting
The

Engine
on the Ravenglass and Eskdale railway. Well worth the trip on here.
Bird strike on a window pane. All the dust comes out and sticks.
Abandoned pump room. Not sure if it was for pumping sewage or water. It serviced an excellent large facility for people with mental problems or those who had been put there out of the way in those days on that pretense, to avoid family embarrassment or to just get rid of them, The facility is now long gone and has another use.
A
stone mason at work in Hebden Bridge. There is a big old abandoned water wheel at the
bottom of their very interesting yard
Water
wheel decaying rapidly
Deserted
farm building going to ruin and part of the farm below
The
deserted farm
I wonder if anyone will restore it? It is rather hidden by trees at the end of a track on the edge of a steep sharp valley with a steam in the bottom and it is a bit out of the way. Maybe it was abandoned for habitation when they built the reservoir further down especially as the stream feeds the reservoir although I think they might have pulled it down if that were the case. Probably some old person passed on and it has faded away too.
Quirky system this Blogspot facility has at times. Get all the spacing right on the
preview and it goes to pot when I post it so I have given up trying. It tweaks the pics a bit sometimes too.
