Been meaning to do this forever, and was eventually spurred into action by Kaplan's recent report.

Visited with Jazzywheelz.

Minitron is an offshoot of the River Don in the Kelham Island area of the city - no doubt in the past it would have fed many water wheels to supply power to the many metalworking factories in this area, but is now largely culverted.

Some lovely stone work...

Gave a couple of blokes walking home from the pub a bit of a shock when we emerged fully-wadered and asked 'em "Is this the way to Rotherham?" :D
