Accrington Web - Today in pictures

If you go onto the link I've posted about the place there is an excellent film which shows you all about the people who took the mill on and restored it -they chose the colours! They also show how it all works interspersed with other details about the history of the place, their products and the people who work there. Worth watching -you can see just how noisy the machinery is!

The film is definitely worth watching - I can recommend it!

A selection of early morning shots at the Pooley Bridge end of Lake Ullswater. It started misty and the lake was very still.

Today in Pictures, bit of a clog and a pump day, not much time, forgot my glasses, only had my compact camera so couldn't see the settings, anyway here is the best of a bad bunch.

1. Its always good to start prostrate in wet grass.
2. Very striking colour.
3. This was constructed over the Winter, it is now maturing.
4. What can I say.
5. Must get back before it rains again.
6. The Sensory Garden and Mercer House.
7. Thats the last of those.
8. These were recently placed in the Sensory Garden, thats all I know.
9. These were all I could find, there might be more, or not, as the case may be.

It wasn't apparent until I got it on the computer, mind you that happens a lot. I load stuff onto the computer and see things that I didn't at the time.

not just maccydees .. its also the unofficial overflow for the offices across the road .. well it was until theyd fenced it off ... I wondered why the cars had appeared at the entrance to the offices and a couple more had appeared on the avenue ... never mind elsewhere ... :D

Never been here before, not the nicest walk we`ve ever been on. Very uneven stoney ground and couldn`t let the dogs off much cos of all the livestock.:rolleyes:
1. On the way up the hill.
2. I think that`s probably Darwen tower.
3. Any Accy webbers in there?
4. One of the few places I could thet them have a run.
5. Why can`t all wind farms be so well hidden.
6. This was supposed to be part of a panoramic pic, but wouldn`t stitch to the previos pic.
7. A Lancs Lass & Duke the Dingle.
8. Better get a move on.
9. Don`t like the look of them horns, i`ll find another way.
10. Another of the windfarm.
