I am guessing this is abandoned - an old water tower near Pennard Castle, Wales. I was fascinated by the angles, the rust - in fact everything about it. This is just one of a series I have for sale.
Mention the words stone circle and most people will think of Stonehenge but Avebury in Wiltshire, UK is home to a very large, indeed the largest stone circle in the country.
A police call box - thousands were made and were a common sight but they are more famous for their association with a time travelling explorer. Now just a handfull remain, this one in Glasgow being a fine example.
Ironbridge, famous throughout the world. Constructed from as the name suggests, iron in 1779 and opened on New Year's Day 1781. Its span of 30 metres provides safe passage across the river Severn below.

On the crest of the world famous Ironbridge in Shropshire there exists this little piece of fancy work, no doubt intended to add to the grandeur of the already impressive structure.
At one end of the iron bridge sits the Tontine hotel which was constructed to accommodate the numbers of people who came to marvel at the new bridge. The name comes from a trust fund set up by the original investors and the last man alive inherited the entire fund.
In the town of Ironbridge In Shropshire is a rather quant array of shops and of course the Tea Emporium. Famous of course for its iron bridge Ironbridge is an extremely popular tourist attraction. There are some overhead cables in real life but I have digitally removed these.
Inside the Exchange Arcade, Nottingham. Another of my if you wait long enough you'll get a clear shot images.
On an island of approximately 50 acres sits the remains of Piel Castle. In the car of English Heritage it is no longer open to the public, however as you need to catch a small ferry to Piel Island where there is one pub and a few cottages it isn't exactly on the beaten track.
Wheal Peevor was a very successful mine in Cornwall and the site has now been turned into a visitor and educational site where its three engine houses remain visible from miles around. This is the Stamps Engine House - stamps were used to crush the rock in preparation for further processing.

Perched on the top of a valley and overlooking 3 Cliffs Bay in South Wales are the remains of Pennard Castle.
