River Tees, Gainford, County Durham

Can't believe how lovely the weather was at Gainford. It didn't rain once! We walked along the River Tees to Gainford Spa, a little known spring along the river. Managed to get a few photographs with my drone along the way.

One of the photographs is over the River Tees at Gainford showing two bridges no longer in use. The first Barford Bridge which did connect 7 houses to Gainford. The second bridge is an old railway bridge built in 1856 and closed in 1962.

Checking the roof

 One of the advantages of owning a drone is that you can check the state of the roof especially after experiencing some of the high winds we have had lately. Drones are great at getting to places where the head for heights is non exsistent. A simple photograph or video can be made that will enable you to assess a particular area for damage or decide what repairs or improvements might be required without the need for scaffold or a ladder. If you would like to talk further about how a drone could give you a video of photograph of an area you have in mind then get in contact.

Observation Hill, Durham

Durham City Landscape From Observation Hill Had a lovely walk to Observation Hill in Durham. Sadly we didn't bring a picnic with us, but there was a family there who did. They were able to enjoy the back drop of the Durham landscape while eating. Fortunately I did bring a drone to take a few pictures and video.
