A Stationary Blog

Houghton Mill
This 30 day period of geographing has a stationary theme; mills, engines and buildings being the main subjects. A few industrial sites ticked off the list and a few more which I don't have time for can be done over Easter/next year. So I left off at Strumpshaw and Ashby St Mary in late July. Photo Gressenhall was first, this workhouse museum far exceeded expectations. A nice summer day also made photography pleasurable. Inside the stationary exhibit was the main interest,...

I was impressed by the village the previous week so took a few photos before setting off on my trek Photo Photo. It was then off towards the lock for some photos of the weir pool Photo before heading off to the Church of St John’s which was along a rather overgrown footpath...
