Black & white image of an urban scene, with an electricity pylon and a gas-holder.
You could always tell when I was trying to be arty; I shot in black&white. I probably titled this 'Energy'.

A terrace of houses has lots of identical stone lions on the gateposts and across the high points of the house
A river flows past the back of a house, towards trees. There's a stone lion visible on a the top corner of the house.
The front of a train in motion. The driver looks strange - like he's wearing protective equipment, perhaps also a mask and a black hat.
A gasholder seen from below against a gray sky. Leafless trees and vines reach in front of and through it.
There's more I could add - how the streets along the river are guarded by #lions, the local #train drivers wear special uniforms, or about that wonderfully creepy #gasholder!
But why not go take a look, down Beverley Brook.

The pretty Harry-Potteresque town of Lavenham is actually a treasure trove for industrial archaeology, particularly from the wool industry. Even its little gasholder (dated 1862) is neatly preserved in a public car park #industrialarchaeology #gasholder #gasometer
