the river, swollen and muddy

After recent storms the river was running full, fast, and very muddy. Here the river passes under the Hunter Street bridge.

In this photo you'll see that the river is running full and very muddy due to a few rain storms a few days earlier.

Sorry for the gap in photos lately... learn from my lesson here... when you go out and just start blindly shooting in a hurry... because it's cold... and you want to go home...

check your settings... and don't have your ISO on 1600!

I'm struggling to salvage enough photos to get me to Monday when, weather permitting, I can reshoot :(

the old railway bridge

Last used in December 1966, now a popular footpath.

Masonic? 1787

Sorry for the error in Monday's photo... I set up the wrong date for the auto post!

I believe this to be a Masonic building but I'm not sure. Usually you see the "G" in the centre of the symbol.

Hunter Street I think?!

Sorry guys, I made no notes for this one... I think it's along Hunter Street again. I just loved that I caught a quiet moment with no traffic, it really makes the place seem deserted.

Prebend House

Prebend House, on Hunter Street, was built by the Bartletts, the most opulent of the tanning families. Members of the family are buried in the family vault across the road in the churchyard.  Sadly this once grand home is crumbling and has been vacant for quite a while.

the weir and Hunter Street bridge

Or is it the "flosh" I've heard this particular spot referred to by both terms.

The weir serving Town Mill, and the bridge carrying Hunter Street over the Ouse.
