Weekly Photo Challenge – Danger
Category : WPC
The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge for the week of May 3, 2017.
Brayner’s Mill was built in the 15th century on the left bank of the River Coina.
The mill was rebuilt after it had been partially destroyed by the earthquake of 1755. This mill, like the others in the region, consisted of several buildings that integrated the mill house, the miller’s house and warehouses for cereals. In the second half of the 19th century the mill was transformed into a pasta factory.
In the 1930s, the factory, known as Fábrica da Sereia, started producing fertilizers.
In 1976 the factory is again converted to produce canned fish until 1989, when it closes doors.
It is a danger the destruction of our heritage.

BLACK & WHITE SUNDAY: THROUGH
Category : Black & White Sunday
Paula at Lost in Translation presented us a challenge: “It’s time for another Black & White Sunday, this time with the theme: THROUGH“.
This photo was taken in Paris on Sunday, April 17th, 2016 17:23.
“In 1515, Francis I was asked to build a bridge over the small branch of the Seine in order to carry patients to the Hôtel-Dieu hospital on the Île de la Cité. Construction began in 1626 and in 1634 the two sides were connected.
The Pont au Double derives its name from the toll amount which was charged, a “double” denier, money used to pay for the construction of the bridge.
In 1709, the bridge collapsed. It was rebuilt and remained in place until 1847. In 1883, the Pont au Double was replaced by a one arch cast-iron bridge.”
