Grimsthorpe Castle in Lincolnshire, remodelled in 1715 by Sir John Vanbrugh for the 3rd Earl of Lindsey. The estate’s parkland was shaped by Capability Brown. Seat of the Willoughby de Eresby family, its origins go back to the 13th century #GrimsthorpeCastle #aerial #image #Lincolnshire #Castle

Unfortunately I only reached the southern edge of Loughborough ... however, I did photograph Rothley Station.

Anglia Square aerial - Norwich. Now in active demolition after the council took ownership in late 2024. DSM began demolishing the 1960s complex in Nov 2025 as the £350m regeneration moves ahead, with plans for 1,100 homes #Norwich #AngliaSquare #aerial #image

Expensive mistake

Aerial view of Sidestrand on the north Norfolk coast, with St Michael & All Angels Church & village set perilously close to the crumbling soft cliffs. Waves, groynes & a narrow shingle beach below show how hard it is to hold back the North Sea #Sidestrand #aerial #image #Norfolk

Swithland Sidings on the preserved Great Central Railway, north of Rothley. Built for the GCR London–Sheffield main line (opened 1899, closed 1966) now restored for heritage freight & engineers’ trains by Great Central Railway plc #Swithland #Sidings #aerial #image #Leicester

Swithland Reservoir, built 1890–1896 to supply Leicester, sits beside the Great Central Railway’s Swithland Sidings, a key freight yard from the line’s opening in 1899. #Swithland #reservoir #GreatCentralRailway #aerial #image #Leicester

Thank you Betsey. Very kind.

Low winter sun over the River Deben, silver water winding through dark fields as shafts of light break through heavy cloud. A quiet Suffolk landscape from the air, boats at anchor and mudflats glowing in the spotlight of the sky. #RiverDeben #Suffolk #aerial #image

Launde Abbey aerial view. Founded as an Augustinian priory in the early 1100s, dissolved in 1539 & taken by Thomas Cromwell. The present house was rebuilt in the 1600s & later expanded. Today it’s a retreat & conference centre #LaundeAbbey #aerial #image #Leicestershire

Cantley Sugar Factory, Norfolk - owned and operated by British Sugar (part of Associated British Foods). First opened 1912, rebuilt & expanded after 1926. Still processes over a million tonnes of beet each season #Cantley #BritishSugar #aerial #image #Norfolk

Offshore platform under tow into Great Yarmouth as CPBS multicat Hound Dog & TMS tug Christine push up the River Yare into Great Yarmouth Harbour, linking North Sea energy fields with Norfolk’s historic port & shipyards #Norfolk #GreatYarmouth #aerial #image #RiverYare

Easton Bavents, north of Southwold in Suffolk, was home to retired engineer Peter Boggis, who fought Natural England over coastal defences. His cliff-top house here was finally demolished in 2020 as one of Britain’s fastest-eroding shores kept cutting inland #Suffolk #coast #erosion #aerial #image

I'm feeling powerfully influential! :)

Aerial: Great Yarmouth’s River Yare - modernist Havenbridge House on the quay, Haven Bridge carrying traffic across the river & old merchants’ streets behind once the busy heart of a great fishing port, now a quieter heritage waterfront #GreatYarmouth #aerial #image #RiverYare

That's a coincidence

Great Yarmouth aerial view: Haven Bridge House, a 1970s riverside office block on North Quay. Once housed HMRC & the Coastguard. Now refurbished as offices, it overlooks the River Yare beside Haven Bridge #GreatYarmouth #aerial #image #RiverYare

What a great view he must have enjoyed.

Aerial view - Great Yarmouth Town Hall on Hall Quay, by Norwich architect John Bond Pearce, opened 31 May 1882 (Prince of Wales present). Replaced the 1716 hall; new building cost about £35,800. Seat of borough council, Grade II* listed since 1974 #GreatYarmouth #aerial #image

Nottingham Castle aerial - on Castle Rock above the Nottingham & Beeston Canal. First fortified c.1068 for William the Conqueror; today’s ducal palace was built 1674–79 for the Dukes of Newcastle, now an art gallery & museum #Nottingham #aerial #image #Castle #NottinghamCastle

Aerial view: Nottingham Castle on its sandstone bluff, rebuilt in 1674–79 by architect William Cavendish, 1st Duke of Newcastle, after the medieval fortress was ruined. Burned by rioters in 1831 then restored in 1878 as a museum #Nottingham #Castle #aerial #image

Downham Market aerial view, with the Grade II listed Clock Tower standing in Market Square. The surrounding market area grew from a medieval crossroads settlement, expanding rapidly in the 18th & 19th centuries with the coming of the railway in 1847. #DownhamMarket #aerial #image

Downham Market’s landmark Town Clock sits on Market Place, the centre of the town since medieval times. The clock was built in 1878 in an ornate Gothic style by local carpenter James Porter. #DownhamMarket #aerial #image #Norfolk

Grantham aerial view - a market town recorded since 1086, shaped by the Great North Road & the East Coast Main Line below. Home to Isaac Newton’s school & the birthplace of Margaret Thatcher. Pop 45,000. #Grantham #aerial #image #Lincolnshire

Walberswick aerial view. Suffolk coastal village of around 350, once a major medieval trading port on the River Blyth. The harbour shifted after storms in the 16th century which sent the port into decline but left the village wonderfully preserved #Walberswick #aerial #image

Lowestoft Railway Station – Britain’s most easterly terminus. Opened 1847 by the Norfolk Railway, later part of the GER. Once served busy boat trains & holiday traffic to the coast. #Lowestoft #EastSuffolkLine #Suffolk #Aerial #image

Easton Bavents, Suffolk – a vanished village once listed in the Domesday Book. The church collapsed into the sea in the early 1800s. Over 400m of land has been lost here since then, making it one of the fastest-eroding coasts in England. #EastonBavents #CoastalErosion #Suffolk #Coast
