There's a big concrete spiral staircase below and the idea is that the walls will follow the curve of it all the way up to the skylight above.

New (old) camera body delivered this week, so obligatory test shots of random stuff around the house.

A bit dark, but the sky’s a bit bright, you can tell nesting season has started, the local pair of carrion crows are pillaging my silver birch for twigs to build with.
A bit of local industrial archaeology that’s recently been cleared up a fair bit, by the land owners who live in the former brewery behind with the big chimney. The previous owner had plans to clear the leat that the waterwheel sits in, and restore the wheel so it could be turned, but he died before he could do much with it. Getting water from the river flowing along the leat again would be nice, but hugely difficult. The former mill of which these are all that’s left, processed old cotton rags and cloth into pulp, which went to the nearby paper mill where my granddad and great-granddad both worked. They’d have probably enjoyed a pint in the brewery tap on their way home to the nearby village of Ford; this is in Slaughterford.
Another new old lens to try out. Spiratone 18mm/3.5 if anyone's even vaguely interested.

Eeeeeeeeeeew!
Pulled this out of the cat's ear, fully intact. Didn't think the cat would give me another go but just as the cat started to protest the wee beastie let go. Impressive macro function on my Pixel 9!

Cleaning gubbed up carb on my hedge trimmer. The fuel line and filter were really manky and now replaced.
