Site of former snuff mill, River Crane
Looking upstream on the western branch of the river. The eastern branch, the natural course, bypasses the mill site via weirs. Above the mill there was formerly a substantial mill pond. The leat for the upper set of mills at Hounslow Powder Mills was tapped off it.

Branch of River Crane
The river splits around a long island over this stretch. The island is on the right. This seems to be connected with a former snuff mill that used this river branch, the other branch being the mill bypass.

River Crane south of Baber Bridge
The River Crane here is followed for some considerable distance by the London LOOP path. This is looking upriver, not far from Baber Bridge. I am not sure of the purpose of the twin tunnel in the distance here.

River Crane at Brazil Mill
This bridge together with a weir, sluices and mill race are the remains of Brazil Mill, one of the many mills along the Crane which up until the 20th century by all accounts was a very industrial river with sword works, copper and paper mills, dye works and gunpowder factories all in what is now West London suburbia.
The mill here was recorded as making paper in 1671. By 1721 it was a dye works, making pigment from Brazil wood, hence the name. It burnt down around 1862. The surrounding woodland is still called Brazil Mill Wood.
