Abandoned Scotland - Charlestown Limekilns, Fife
The Charlestown limekilns were part of an early industrial complex based on lime, limestone and coal production on the estate of the Earl of Elgin.
The Charlestown limekilns were the largest group of limekilns in Scotland and played an important role in the agricultural improvements of the 18th and 19th centuries in providing lime for the improvement of the soil and for the construction of new farm buildings.
The present range of kilns date from 1777 and 1778 when construction work was started on 9 of the 14 kilns. The limestone was carried to the kilns on a horse-drawn tramway known as the Elgin Railway. This was later replaced by a branch line of the North British Railway which has now been lifted. Of the original kilns, all but the three at the east end of the range have been refaced. They are all draw kilns and constructed of dressed ashlar.

Short Walk around Holy Island (Lindisfarne), North Northumberland. ©
Welcome to Rucksack Rose - The Outdoors Channel. Read more at
This is a short 4 mile circular walk around the interior of the island which takes in the harbour, Lindisfarne Castle, the lime kilns, the bird and nature reserves, the dunes and a local farm. The lowering sky was genuine as it was a very dark day without rain. Visitors to the island should always check the tide times to ensure they can get on and off the island at low tide. There are several main routes around the island but this is a good route if you only have limited time as it gives a broad cross section of the many aspects of island life and there are shops, pubs and cafes in the village at the end.This video was filmed out of season in February but even in summer the majority of the many tourists who visit the island don't venture further than the village and the castle. There is an easy diversion to the beach from the gate where the route turns back towards the village. A GPS download of this walk is available from my Viewranger profile:
Wherever you go stay safe, check the weather, plan ahead, let people know where you are going, take maps & compass with your gps and follow the countryside or access codes for where you are.
Music / Sound: Recorded on the day of the walk by the farm to the north of the village.
The Lost Village of Lassodie, Just West of Kelty in Fife, Scotland
The Lost Village of Lassodie also known as the St Ninians opencast mine.
Lassodie was a coal mining village and its demise is an indication of the fate which has befallen the mining industry since those early days. Gone are the houses and the wee shops which served the inhabitants, gone are the various clubs and societies, the pub, the farm and, finally, gone are the people who made Lassodie what it was.
For more information on this old village location, visit the following websites:
I use this area to test the Phantom 3 Pro out as it very quiet with plenty of space to fly. I thought I would put a few clips together. Apologies for the props in the shot.

Solva is a village and community in Pembrokeshire, Wales, comprising principally Lower Solva and Upper Solva. Solva lies on the north side of St Bride's Bay, in North Pembrokeshire in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. It lies on a deep valley at the mouth of the River Solva. In the valley is Lower Solva, consisting of a long street ending at the small harbour. Most of the modern development has been in Upper Solva, on the cliff top to the west of the harbour.
The village church honors Saint Aidan and is part of the parish of Whitchurch.[3]
The rocks at the entrance to Solva Harbour made it one of the most sheltered anchorages between Fishguard and Milford Haven. Solva became the main trading centre of St Bride's Bay in the medieval period, and was important for lime burning. Several lime kilns are preserved in the harbour area. In the 19th century, Solva had around 30 registered trading ships. The fading coastal trade has been replaced by tourism, and the harbour is now a popular boating centre. The village was the location for Wales' first butterfly farm, Solva Nectarium, which opened in 1979.
Every year on Easter Monday Solva hosts a Duck Race for charity. The ducks are released into the River Solva near Middle Mill and float down stream to Solva harbour. The winner is the first to cross under the footbridge in lower Solva car park. Each summer, Solva hosts a Regatta which features rowing for adults and children.
The spectacular local cliff coast is popular with walkers, and the classic cliff exposures of Cambrian rocks attract amateur and professional geologists. Solva Woollen Mill, located at the nearby village of Middle Mill, claims to be the oldest continuously working woollen mill in Pembrokeshire. Today the mill mostly manufactures carpets and rugs. There is a tearoom and a shop, and visitors are able to see the looms at work. Solva Harbour is a good example of a flooded valley known as a ria. Local rocks contain fossils from the Cambrian period. and the village gives its name to this rock sequence.
( Solva - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting the city of Solva . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Solva - UK
