Old pictures

[Ian Wegg]

Anyway, thanks to Derek for the original post. If I've ever been to Whitchurch it can't have been for years; it looks nice, I must pop up there sometime!

A bit of an advert for Whitchurch, there is a very nice Working Silk mill to visit and of course the Bombay Sapphire distillery just a couple of miles up the road in Laverstoke. It’s a very small town with some nice buildings, pubs etc.

I made it today! I took these pictures this morning (although sadly without my A7 in them, it was a bit too far to drive the Chummy). What a lovely little town.

I hadn't realised that the bridge is right next to the silk mill, the River Test runs underneath and on another 200 yards to drive the water wheel.  A lovely setting in this morning's sun and a pleasant lunch.

I'll save the gin palace for a future outing.
