According to the fantastic Dartefacts (dartefacts.co.uk) ... this is Eylesbarrow Stamping/Smelting Mill No.2 om #Dartmoor (I'm not arguing) this is the first time I've visited the ruins of the Eylesbarrow Tin Mine and it will definitely be getting a second visit 😍 Splendid day out 💚📷

The View From Above💚
Yesterday I decided to give 10 minutes a day to working on things I've so far managed to not get around to doing.
One of those things was flying the drone for absolutely no real reason apart from getting in some practise ... #northlew #devon #dronephotography

I've been slowly updating my website - I took some of the volunteers from The Museum of #Dartmoor Life for a walk around #Foggintor Quarry and the area back in November 2024 ... please take a read and give me some feedback ... thanks 💚

Keen observers might notice this is an incomplete blog entry - I’ll no doubt scan through over the next few days and fill in the gaps … does anybody actually read this stuff? 🤣
