The photograph below has been taken a few minutes before
the sun sets behind the wooded hillside. Note that it is almost 2pm .
Apart from the gloom and dampness that must surround any proposed
settlement in a valley bottom which is close to densely wooded steep hills
there is also noise. Being a former mill, the mill race, although visually
exciting, has a constant iritating, thunderous noise. This
unavoidable nuisance is not at all like that of the seaside's ebb and flow
of the waves as the water rushing through the mill race hardly
varies from day to day. At other times in the year, although the sun
reaches its zenith at a greater altitude the closest trees, which are
located in a conservation area will have leaves on them and will cast
their shadow. If you live here, I doubt whether you will be able to enjoy
sitting in sunshine having an after work evening drink.
