Swaledale Industry

I actually went out with the camera, full of positivity, Leaving the house to blue skies and broken cloud. By the time I got to Richmond there was sleet falling from the leaden, featureless skies, Still, I was out of the house :-)

And ten minutes along the valley is the Old Gang Lead Mill

 

Lots of open mine shafts along here, all with water pouring out today, was disappointed not to have taken a torch, until I thought about it - not a thing to do on your own when no-one knows where you are, I suspect

Looks good Jon.   I have walked up there before.   Its a very nice accessible walk.
