Elsecar Newcomen Engine, the Earl's Great Engine, installed as part of the #Elsecar New Colliery in 1795. The engine pumped water from the mine to allow the lower levels to be safely worked

Second walking day of my short break… but longest I’ve walked for over a year… albeit quite level for the most part! From #Doncaster through mostly #DonValley / magnificent #TransPennineTrail to mighty #Elsecar. Star place: #MarketHotel, fab!
A vintage photograph featuring a fictional “Big Pond Monster” with multiple heads emerging from a reservoir, startling a fisherman holding his hat. The scene includes rural landscape, with trees and a distant church spire. Text reads “Great Scot!”.
It's after midday which means we can go back to believing everything we see on the internet, right?
Like the time the Loch Ness monster had a trip to Elsecar reservoir
