I had an initial explore of the Colthrop site. There's more to see and photograph for another time. The history doesn't need repeating - it's all here already.
The pipes which cross the canal start here
Another angle
Where they arrive at the mill grounds
Details
More details
Pipes on their way to downtown Colthrop
Valve-type affairs
Nice rust
I'm calling this the drowning pool. Very creepy.
Debris by the drowning pools
Another valve
Details of some complicated things
A tank
Various workings
The water tower
And its base
Those cuts look clean and recent. Probably the same bunch who nicked the copper at Greenham Common recently.
Finally, who can resist a good fungi pic

Was here yesterday trying out my new camera. Did you travel down to the abandoned houses just a bit further along the canal?
