Entrance gates, & worman's door, The Hyde Iron Works.
Wista 45DX, 150mm Sironar N, f22, Tmax 100 @ 50EI, Rodinal 3:100, Forte Polywarmtone, ID-78, Selenium toned.
The works dates back to 1629, it was the first slitting mill in the UK, it changed use over the years closing in 1883. The gates collapsed due to the weight of the ivy. I have a piece of wood with the door latch it's attached with thick bent over nails, probably made a mile away at a nail mill, about a mile down river.
I'm going to make a large print on some Polywarmtone I acquired a few months ago.
