I supplied some equipment to a gunpowder factory at one time. In fact, I supplied them twice. Once when they first built it and a second time after they accidently blew it up. Nice repeat business for me. Rob
Interesting you say that. The Sony HDR PJ810 Handycam is renowned for its image stabilisation (nothing was done in the edit). It really came good today. If you go to 3:46 you will see how bumpy that ride is on the right hand side where you can see the coach we were in. I was holding my arm out to steady it but the camera did the rest. Amazing it is.
They've seen some sunny days and some dark days over their 300 years. When did production end Laurie? Excellent day out, thank you for showing this. David.
Thank-you!
"Calvert On Tour" ... something ever haunting about antiquity ... that pile of bricks after the ducks piques my fancy most 📹 moving postcards 👌

I remember working there at times but never had a tour around the place.

I've used it a few times Fred. Good luck mate by the way - you know what about). It is very tiring. Laurie.

Rob McCrain That is quite funny actually.
Calvertfilm Not for them. They were making black powder for antique guns.
Rob McCrain oh dear.
Interesting video, might be a good idea for a narrow gauge model railroad. Cheers Andy
you did a good job with the camera.

1991 David. More info here: www.royalgunpowdermills.com/history-heritage/300-years-history/
Excellent info Laurie, Thank you. There aren't any secret rooms in The Tower stuffed full of powder are there? lol. David. PS, No sign of badge yet.
An RB44, the worst truck the army had - apparently. BT had some but at least they had useful brakes....
No brakes? Well that's one way to keep the army advancing.
David Atkins if you look at the A.R.S.E. site, they don’t have a very high opinion of them!
