St Ives Mansion

The unused Mansion at St Ives Estate caught fire last night - eight appliances and over 50 firefighters attended - the building had no mains water supply - much had to be taken from Coppice Pond - the estate is still open so took in these sights on route to pick up paper - not the best of captures but wanted a record on my blip of the event - extra taken from approach to turn off to get to Pond

Still to come teatime drinks with friends - sure this will be a topic of conversation
