Description
While out on my walkabout Monday 1stDEC around the old town of Whitworth Lancashire UK where once thrived the cotton mills of the industrial days of old I could see the imposing view of Facit Mill from a fair distance.
I walked on, the mills are still a common and ugly site, yet as I passed I stumbled upon these gates which I found of great interest.
Thanks for all views and comments they are very much appreciated.
We have a weather warning SNOW tomorrow, I love it for the value of photos but it seems the whole North of England can't get into work and everything comes to a standstill, I bet 'cold' countries don't have a problem with it lol.
