yes it was good, it was a lot bigger than i thought it would be i was expecting it to be only a couple of feet tall.

I didn't go down for this one at first i went for the well, but as i was going down the hill to the stream i sort of fell in to it.

I went for Old Smokey and sort of fell into the well.

The soot in old smokey looks amazing in those piles on the floor, its crazy how drops have fallen through it all to make those shapes.

Did you visit the well? There was a huge sheet of lead at the end of it when we went where somebody may have been trying to fix the leaks but failed.

Did you go to the end of the well? Its mental with all that water crashing down after a flood. I was in the area today so I had a quick mooch. That well has some amazing history
