Hey Dave, yeh its certainly not the same as back along. Its so heavily trafficked now that parts of the woods are being closed off due to erosion. The main drag is just a series of exposed roots of the beeches, eventually when they go there will be no offsprings to replace them as they don’t get a chance to grow. When you look at the longevity of the place flooding will erode the banks naturally so its kind of a what do you do.. luckily the untouched part is how it was so can still get a taste of how it was if you go off path. Id love to get hold of the keys for that shaft!! Maybe one day they will let me 😉👍 Thanks for watching.
Good question. Im guessing it either got shipped off downstream or processed further up by the waterwheel enclosures. I couldn’t tell you though. Just guesses. Thanks for watching 👍
