Square Saturday… Leawood Pump House

Leawood Pump House
Mamiya C330f Professional, Mamiya-Sekor 80mm f/2.8 – 1/125s, f11, – Ilford FP4 Plus
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 10 mins at 20°c.
Another image from a walk along the Cromford Canal at the end of April and another scene I’ve photographed more times than I care to remember over the years…
Leawood Pump House was built in 1849 to pump water from the River Derwent into Cromford Canal. I don’t think it still fulfils its original purpose but the pump is steamed from time to time and is well worth seeing in action.

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Five years ago it was the landscape around Ilam Park in Staffordshire during a Photography Friday outing with Rachel.
The 158-acre country park is on both banks of the River Manifold and is a great place for a walk at any time of year but especially in autumn!
