At 1m 30 seconds into the film you are in for a treat- its the same mill in edwardian times! but watch the entire 2 minutes for an idea of a mill town of old:)

Well done that man:thumb Now that brought a smile to my face mate :) Spot on research and great to see.

Proof also that a clock was evident! And the small bell tower is ace.

And thanks to all for the comments.

Nice stuff yet again. :thumb

Some smashing pics there - nice work :thumb

Cheers guys :thumb

So I get a text from silent saying the weather seems to be breaking think I might go for it. So I sit there ...and I think ... feck it I'll go too.

Note to silent - if you're pondering a career as a weather forecaster .... don't ponder too long eh ? :thumbd

So by time I get there silent had been there some time so I made my way to the top level ... after 30 minutes I got my breath back and started taking some shots.

Combination of crap weather (with lots of rain), arriving late and bein a bit rushed has resulted in a not exactly stunning set of images.

Still here they are anyway:

Approaching the Mill with the Old Lane pub on the left - imagine this place did well when the mill was still operational
