well this is my last post from my Wales tour.sorry if I have bombarded the forum with my posts this week.anyway I visited these two small mills last year.but it was a disaster.in the first mill my camera went wrong.and in the second mill I went the route I was given only to be stopped by the old woman who owned the field and told me I could not go that way to the mill.so I had to find another way.it was either a long tree across the river.or to wade the river.i had come a long way last year to see these and I did not fancy the tree while on my own.so the river it was.i waded it and it was waist deep.two days after that I caught a severe case of whooping cough which had me off work for several weeks and lasted eight months..so I was pleased to go back with my camera all working.this time we took the easy route and every thing went perfectly this time.
This is the first mill.my camera went wrong in here and I had to shoot in auto.its very cramped and the downstairs is full of machinery and very dark.but upstairs is a bit more lighter and still cramped though.
This is the second mill.like I say getting here was a bit easier this time.although a steep bank to contend with.this one is not as busy as the other one.i loved the coloured wool in here.and the old wooden machinery.the roof is on the verge of collapsing.
I hope you enjoyed my retake on these small but very beautiful old mills.
