Dull grey morning

Looking from the main road onto the floating harbour, with Castle Park in the distance, and the shot tower on the right. It was built in 1969, replacing the first ever shot tower, built in 1782.  Apparently they poured molten lead through a giant colander at the top, and by the time the drops hit the water at the bottom, they were lead shot. Now it’s an upmarket office, and the round room at the top is the board room.
