From Pin Mill at High tide we walked up to the Cliff Plantation forest, catching glimpses of the Orwell as we walked. Deeper into the forest we saw sunlight through trees lighting up leaves in autumn colours and a variety of fungi in the shadowy undergrowth. We walked through then around the edge of the forest making our way down to the edge of the Orwell and then back up along the cliff top path until we came to the steps down towards the houseboat community. Some are living in what were abandoned wrecks of traditional vessels, some such vessels are just abandoned.

The Old Mill, Lower Slaughter.
The Old Mill is to be found, just round the corner of the cottage with the dormer windows, where the River Eye meets the north-western edge of the village. It is open to the public as a museum and shop.
The red brick chimney is part of the mill and the mill has the only brickwork to be seen in Lower Slaughter.
This picturesque cotswolds village, with it's cottages made of yellow stone, is made even more picturesque by the River Eye, also known as Slaughter Brook, flowing through it. Unlike Bourton-on-the-Water, nearby, visitors appear relatively unobtrusive. This part of the village with it's little green by the river is really very pleasant.
The word 'slaughter' is derived from the Anglo Saxon meaning a muddy place. Not quite how it appears today.
This mill, originally built by George Washington near Perryopolis, Pennsylvania, lay in absolute ruin until recently. It is hard to believe this building is not old, though I believe the stones are the original ones. This was taken at dusk through the chain link fence that surrounds the place. Though the restoration was well done, the site never seems to be open to the public.
This old mill is located just a few miles from Rose Hill, Va. where I live. I've been wanting to get back down there for some time to make some more photos, and was in the area last night. The old structure probably won'y last much longer since the front is already beginning to collapse. I'd like to have gotten closer, but I saw some "NO Trespassing" signs along the fence nearby.

© Copyright Tommy Simms All Rights Reserved. Another visit to Cochran Mill, (South) Fulton County, Georgia.
So, I'm on my way home from work and I decide that it might be a great time to stop by Cochran Mill Park. The sky was overcast (perfect for my photographic tastes) and being early afternoon I figured that I would probably be by myself (wrong). As I arrived I noticed two young ladies starting down the trail and I gave a friendly hello. Not much of a friendly hello in return - oh well.
After reaching the falls, I decided that I needed to cross the creek and try to get some shots. Well, that was an adventure with my backpack, tripod, slippery rocks and me with the grace of a water buffalo. The crossing did provide some entertainment value to the aforementioned young ladies though!
So, arriving a little wet and somewhat muddy I set up and took a few shots, moved around took a few more shots - I swear, I moved as though I had two left feet…slipping and stumbling, dropping lens caps, It was rough!
After getting some shots and making a fool of myself, I decided to leave the area. I hiked along a short trail that I hadn't been on in a few years - no entertainment value here, pretty uneventful and that’s good, but there was nobody around to appreciate it.
Anyway, after circling around and winding my way to the top of the hill above the waterfall, I decided to just sit down and take it all in (mostly rest and try to remove some of the mud off of my pants). It was at this point that I noticed that the two young ladies down below (I guess they didn't see me) were sharing a "cigarette". Hmmm that was some funny smelling "tobacco"! Their way of enjoying nature I suppose.
After a while as I was making my way down the trail I came up with this "brilliant" idea of extending one of the legs on my tripod and using it like a walking stick. See where I'm going with this? The young ladies smoking the funny smelling “cigarette” in this story are really a diversion and have nothing to do with the rest of the story at all. Don't you just hate that?
Back to the so-called brilliant idea; with the assistance of my tripod walking stick, I crossed back over the creek which again provided quite the show but by this time I had no audience (the young ladies had left) thank goodness. As I was scrambling up the opposite bank I stuck my single extended tripod leg into the ground to brace myself and it just sank into the soft sandy bank all the way up to the first joint. “No worries” I thought as I pulled it straight back out. “Whew dodged a bullet there”, I thought, "I could have snapped the leg right off”! Just then is when I noticed that the bottom cap was missing from the leg and was about 18 inches somewhere down in the ground. Should I try to order another one from Bogen/Manfrotto, could I make my own, should I do without, or should I try to find this one…hmm, I’m cheap. So, I hiked back up to my vehicle put my gear inside and retrieved my handy “US ARMY” shovel – You know, the kind that fold up real small. I went back down to the creek bank and after about 10 minutes of digging a fairly nice foxhole, if I do say so myself, I finally found the little bugger! By this time I’m REALLY thankful nobody is around. I was quite the sight standing there all muddy carrying a little Army shovel and a small black plastic tripod leg cap thingy and wondering to myself if it was really worth the trouble! It was.
So, there it is, not quite a thousand words but I hope you like the photo anyway!

This is an old mill in Törnävä area, Seinäjoki town, Finland which was founded in early 1800 by Abraham Falander. For him we own the gratitude for the existence of our city. He had a shipyard in Vaasa where he needed wood and iron for his ship industry. So he founded iron processing facilities to Törnävä and he paid peasants around to provide him raw iron material and so riched the area. This mill is one of the few remaining buildings from his greatness times.
This is one of the "hired guns" that provide specialized services to our group. In this case, delivering scrap by rail. Here he calls into the mill to see what scrap is required and where.

This historical street is lucky to have escaped the ravages of Warwick's Great Fire of 1694. At the bottom of it can be found the beautiful Mill Garden and a stunning perspective of the Castle.

There are two Mill Ponds in Emsworth, and this is the one that seems to be the most popular with visitors. How wonderful it would be to live in one of the houses overlooking it, although I believe they have trouble with flooding from time to time!
I grew up with the threat of flooding, so I wouldn't want that risk again!!

Beverley Mill aka Chapman's Mill
Beverley Mill Before the Fire Beverley Mill aka Chapman's Mill, a grist mill that was first constructed in 1742, is one of the most important historic properties in Prince William County. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977 and is classified as a County Registered Historic Site in the County's Comprehensive Plan. The mill is located on the Fauquier-Prince William border along Broad Run, north of Interstate 66 and Route 55.
The grounds contain the archaeological remains of an earlier mill, a family farmhouse, the family graveyard, and several outbuildings. The building is a massive five and a half stories constructed of locally-quarried stone. First built in 1742, but due to a fire in 1858, the mill was rebuilt and the top two stories added. The mill was heavily damaged again by fire in 1998.
The mill furnished food products for five wars, beginning with the French and the Indian Wars. It played a strategic role in the Civil War Battle of Thoroughfare Gap. As late as the 1940s, it was still grinding approximately 100,000 bushels of grain annually and employing six people. Initially at risk when Interstate 66 was constructed; the mill was saved when a coalition of citizen groups and state and federal agencies agreed to reroute the path of the Interstate around it.Beverley Mill After the Fire
On Oct. 22, 1998, Beverley Mill was tragically vandalized and gutted by fire. Soon afterward, the Turn The Mill Around Campaign, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt foundation, obtained ownership of the property and began the steps necessary to stabilize the walls of the mill. The goals of this non-profit organization include preserving the structure of the mill; restoring the wheel and the open mill race; providing public access; developing interpretive programs on the significance of the mill and Thoroughfare Gap; and raising the funds needed to carry out these goals.
Plans call for pedestrian pathways around the mill and along the head race providing views of the millpond, flume, sluice gate, forebay and the 29-foot wheel and tail race. Visitors will be able to enter the mill to gain a greater appreciation of its enormity and the beauty of the stone work. Interpretive signs will explain the milling process and the impact of the industrial site on the evolving economy of the area. The stone mill store will be restored and re-commissioned as an information outpost.

It's been awhile since I've posted anything. I've not stopped taking pictures. I just am using my shots in a different way than showing them on Flickr. I have tons of photos I have begun to print out. I'm placing them in scrapbooks. Photo albums didn't fit my needs because almost all my pictures have stories behind them. At any rate, from time to time, I may still post on Flickr. I doubt it will be with any regularity.
An old and pollarded tree and South Street Mill that dates back 800 years on the same site.
A unique take on the location for the more usual iconic shots of Durham Cathedral and the River Wear.
Crystal Mill outside Marble, Colorado. The Crystal Mill Jeep tours will drive you in. They offer group tours or private tours in souped up Jeeps. (it's not really a tour it is just a means of getting people in to photograph the site) Once you start down the road their is no way to back up and the road (if that's what you want to call it) can be pretty dangerous. The ride is costly but worth it.
