So, the month of June seems to have been a lot about the Carillon, and related things! Earlier in the month, I took the opportunity to climb the Carillon tower, and look out over Queen's Park, over Loughborough, over to Beacon Hill and the Outwoods, to the Leicestershire Wolds, and even over to East Midlands airport! I've been up the tower many times over the years, and I've taken photos of the views from many of Loughborough's taller places and from the town's rooftops, but here are some photos from my latest tower climb - simply in the order in which I took them!
