ChrisRRow of thatched houses. These are not shown on early 20th century maps so are actually fakes!

Narrow boat entering a lock. In the early 20th century, facing steep competition from railways, the Grand Union Canal rebuilt its locks to take two boats. One is already in the lock. You can see the mouth of the old single lock, paved over. Of course, the investment failed.

Eel traps on the River Test. The Test is famous as a chalk stream for fly fishing. We saw these structures from a bridge and couldn't work out what they were, but apparently these are eel traps, now disused as eels are protected.

Longstock Park Water Gardens 7. I forgot I also had my pocket #OlympusMju2 loaded with Kodak Gold 200, and took a few frames in the gardens. This is the nicest, although I do prefer the black and white...
Devved by Polyfilm Labs, who also did my Scala. Scanned by me with Vuescan. The colours were all over the place; I've done my (limited) best with them!
The runner. It's the nature of pocket cameras that films can cover a long period. This was the first on this roll.

James Paul@carusb, curious if this comment on the older benches post comes through to you.
@roguemusiclab The comment has come through in my Mentions, but the original post has still not, so it seems like an isolated Mention!
@carusb, quirks of the post-modern world.
