Ropewalk falling down....
« on: August 09, 2006, 08:46:23 PM »
On the BBC there is a programme about buildings in need of restoration.
One of those buildings is a ropewalk, in poor conditions, with much of its machinery still inside.
Here is a link to the website about it: http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/programmes/restoration/2006/sw_dawes_twine_works_01.shtml
