The building is grade II-listed by English Heritage, and would have been used for the storage, loading and unloading of goods (mainly textiles and coal) onto narrowboats. The canal is widened here to allow the boats to turn round. The building next door, once a warehouse, was more recently a pub (The Inn on the Wharf), but has been closed and empty since Sept 2017. There were stables adjoining here for the horses which towed the boats.

Beyond the warehouse adjoining the bridge, is the former Toll and Wharf Master’s House; another Grade II listed building dating from c1850. This is now used as The Weavers’ Triangle Visitor Centre. The bridge is also Grade II-listed.

A cheap and nasty camera phone pic. If you look carefully you can just see two pallet trucks celebrating the new year.

I havent done much HDRs lately but I still think it is a fun technique to work with. And it was my gateway drug into photography.

I still prefer my rocks and water processed the "normal" way though :)

Quick! Up the stairs! They're like Daleks, they don't do stairs...

Of course by the time they noticed what was waiting on the other side of the enticingly open gate at the top, it was too late. Much too late.

And there you have it, the perfect end to a perfect day.

Or something.

Woozy.
