Loughborough snow today!

So, over the last couple of weeks I've been a bit busy, gadding about, but today I managed to get out and about in Loughborough - in the snow! Here's some pics of my journey from Loughborough Road cemetery, to Charnwood Water, past the Great Central Railway, onto the Grand Union canal, up to the parish church, the Old Rectory, along Fennel Street and into the Market Place. Enjoy!

    1. Thank you! Charnwood Water is particularly photogenic, isn't it, but there are so many interesting things in the Charnwood area to photograph!
