Roker to Whitburn Windmill

Roker Pier

I drove to Sunderland today for a walk and to fly my drone. After spending a short time at Roker with it's wonderful pier, decided to drive towards South Shields.

There's a wonderful landmark on the journey north, a grade 2 listed building which was built in 1790, a tower mill built to grind corn. This Windmill stands on it's own among a housing estate. A great opportunity to take a few snaps with the drone. Below are a few photos of the Whitburn Windmill.

Had a lovely walk and flying of my drone in Middleton-in-Teesdale today.

River Tees, Gainford, County Durham

Can't believe how lovely the weather was at Gainford. It didn't rain once! We walked along the River Tees to Gainford Spa, a little known spring along the river. Managed to get a few photographs with my drone along the way. One of the photographs is over the River Tees at Gainford showing two bridges no longer in use. The first Barford Bridge which did connect 7 houses to Gainford. The second bridge is an old railway bridge built in 1856 and closed in 1962.
