The old mill at Willington Quay
This is located on the banks of Willington Gut, beside the present Bridon ropeworks. Originally built around 1750, it was of 7 storeys, as shown on an old photo dated 1893. Since then however, it has been cut down to 4 storeys and a curved roof put on.

Willington Gut, looking north
However, the magnificent viaduct in the background is worthy of greater note as it was built as long ago as 1837 when railways were still very new, as were iron bridges. I'd hoped to get a clear view of the viaduct, but trees seemed to be much higher than when I last came this way. Here it is in earlier days; http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/246914
