    Westwood Marshes Mill, Walberswick, Suffolk

    This was taken on a lovely walk around Dingle & Walberswick Marshes today.

    The following is blatantly nicked from Wikipedia:

    Westwood Marshes Mill was built in the late 18th century, possibly in 1798. It was worked by wind until 1940 and then damaged when used for target practice during World War II. The mill was repaired in the 1950s but in October 1960 it was burnt out in an arson attack. It remains standing in a derelict state.

        Hi Chris; I'm enjoying the composition and I think the square crop works well here... My sense is that a mono conversion will work even better; it'll really bring out the great sky and the texture of the brickwork and grasses... Just my thoughts; ignore as you wish...
        Cheers;

          Thanks all for your encouraging comments. I may well try a mono version later.

            I like that - the expansive sky works well.

                What a sad looking structure that, what a shame it's not been rebuilt. Aside from that, nicely composed shot
