This row of cottages stands empty, somewhere in the Berwickshire countryside… Such places start me daydreaming…

This spot has featured on this blog at least once before, here, but until this morning I’d forgotten I’d photographed it using the fantastic ONDU 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera!

Crich Tramway Village is only a few miles from here and it’s somewhere I really should visit more often… This pic of Leeds City Tramways No.399 was actually taken on Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day last year, at the same time as the one posted here.

An image from one of my current favourite cameras, the Minolta X-700…

I’d love to know how a man born in Odessa in the Ukraine in 1823 (then part of Imperial Russia) ended up buried in the small Derbyshire village of Pentrich (best known for the Pentrich Revolution of 1817).
