Good morning Twitter chums. A few photos from @Papplewick_PS May Day show yesterday. Have a great day everyone.

Papplewick Pumping Station in Nottinghamshire is possibly the most complete Victorian fresh water pumping station in England. 🌊 Built in the 1880s in the Gothic Revival style, the station provided clean water to Nottingham until it was decommissioned in 1969.

@NottsLibraries @Newstead_Abbey @RSPBSherwood @Rufford_Abbey Great stuff!
