Robert Owen's model village and factory complex on the River Clyde. Now a world heritage site. The building with the cupola and oculus is New Buildings that is worker's housing. The stonework on the right is the edge of the Mill 3 engine house that drove the mill via a rope-race over the leat (lade). It was definitely the season of mellow fruitfulness and I would have preferred some punchier lighting.
