Danescombe Valley
This is another of the Go Pro and quad helicopter adverts so intriguing that explores the immediate environment to greater extent making even the run down and abandoned, ruined and overgrown seem to be interesting and makes you go, "Why am I not having as much fun?" And, "Why didn't I think of that?"
He flies it around so many times I feel like I've been there.
Spanky Danscombe Valley Paper Mill. Wow, now that looks interesting.
Dancombe Valley is in Calstock Cornwall where these ruins of an old paper mill are located along with a sawmill and a grain mill, I noticed in the immediate area. What's up with all these mills clustered around?
That's the way it was. Waterpower was applied to everything they could think of during the twelfth century, sawmills provided lumber for the estates, iron mills forged iron, waterpower was even applied to textiles. Moreover, due to the seignorial system in the thirteenth century whereby lords could insist grain grown on their property be milled on their property an expansion of waterpower for milling grain occurred throughout.
[Just like the Egyptians. And like Egyptians, sources say "corn" they do not mean maize.]
Clicking through the photos pinned on Google Earth at Calstock is like being in an H.O. train setup, I haven't seen anything this picturesque.
