Panorama round the Mill at Houghton and Wyton

I have finally completed the Mill Panorama.


These photos were taken from on top of the turbine housing (hence the dizzying altitude), they were then stitched together with Spin Panorama and made rotational in Flash 5 (in case you're interested).

The panorama shows the Mill (duh!), the Mill keeper's cottage, the entrance to the caravan park, the back of the tearoom, the Millpool and the downstream river.


I don't mean to be predictable, but, questions we should ask ourselves ...

What is in the big box on top of the sluice? - and couldn't they have disguised it slightly?

Why is there no-one partaking of tea on the park benches outside the tearoom?

What miracle of gravity has stopped someone pulling over the gear wheels outside the Mill keeper's cottage? (answer - they are unbelievably heavy!!!)

Was I worried about DVT, considering the great height? No, I kept moving my feet and had a medical expert on hand, but thank you for worrying, my dear viewer!

As a matter of interest, if you listen closely, you may hear the church bells.....


..... sorry, just my little joke - the movie is silent!
