Default Back of Fingringhoe Mill

Fingringhoe Mill closed in the early 1990s. It was a tidal mill in the sixteenth century,
The original Listed Mill buildings where hardly visible behind huge concrete silos and asbestos-clad warehouses. However following six months demolition the original structures were revealed and the Timber Frame Tide Mill and its Victorian four-storey granary building where carefully restored and converted into two magnificent homes overlooking the Roman River.

Default Sky Bridge

The Sky Bridge at Langkawi is the main tourist attraction on the island. It is a tremendous piece of engineering and also has a certain unique elegance.
