To be honest, the photo of James, our youngest grandson, taking a breather by Cow Tower along the riverside path, would have been my choice for World Photography Day 2024, but it is a personal photo and so not really for public viewing. He is a 15 year old and quite autistic, as well as being much taller than Adrian and me, and he now walks much faster than we do

James has a couple or so of passions, one being buses, another trains and a third classic cars. So our first stop, after a visit to a cafe for a Pepsi and two coffees was a visit to the bus station - followed by a visit to the train station of course. He forgot to bring his clicker to count all the Norwich buses unfortunately.

Horsey wind pump

nobody@ipernity.com (Amelia) — Fri, 08 Dec 2023 08:07:36 +0000

Amelia has posted:

Horsey windpump was working, draining the surrounding area, until it was struck by lightning in 1943. It was acquired by the National Trust in 1948. The mill's damaged sails were removed in 1956, and replacement sails and fantail were installed in 1962. The Great Storm of 1987 caused further damage, and repair works were required before the building could reopen to visitors in 1990.

Having succumbed to the ravages of time and the elements, the sails were removed again in 2014. A restoration project started in 2016 to repair and reinstate the cap and sails, with the ambition of restoring the Windpump to full working order. Finally, after a four-month wait of unsuccessful tests in unfavourable wind, the sails eventually turned on the evening of Wednesday 29 May 2019 for the first time since 1943.

Here it's possible to see the position of the fantail, and where the fence photo was taken after climbing to the top.

The locomotive is being turned ready for the return trip to Aylsham. With no power available, the crew are obviously putting their backs into the task, while passengers are waiting for the train to be turned round.

This our youngest grandchild, James.

I crossed a very busy road to look at this bench.

Seals

Amelia has posted:

Most of these are Grey Seals with shorter snouts and flippers, and cat-like faces. I think there may have been a couple of harbour Seals in the group too, with longer Labrador-like snouts, but I couldn't get any nearer. They all seemed to be enjoying basking in the sun.

A Happy Christmas to you all on this special site - IPERNITY

All Saints, Horsey

All Saints is a single celled building with a round tower. The round tower is Norman I think. A tall octagonal bell tower was added on the eve of the Reformation. In the summertime the church is mostly hidden by trees.
