Cornish Copper Smelters on the Bristol Avon. Fantastic locations but very few moorings so we could not land.

Abraham Darby brought back expert workers from the Rhine to do the smelting.

On this day today - 14 June 2022

 

Tees Barage, White Water course and River Tees.

 

Shows, control tower, hydraulic ram, Lock and Archimedes screws which are needed run run the course at certain states of the tide. They can run in reverse under flow of water to generate leccy. The conveyor belt lifts kayaks and the kayakers up to re start the course, in the same way as the lifts on theme park water rides.

Five Mile Pond (Fairburn), A&C

 

One of our old stomping grounds. I genuinely never knew that section was called that either.👍

Im starting to wonder if I am a bit of a geek because I can recognise and name many of the locations on here before I get to the captions...🤣🤣
