Last night, before I went to Roydon Parish Council meeting, I was very pleased to be invited to Parndon Mill by owner, Sally Anderson, to see a new exhibition, by local Artist Liz Boast. I love Parndon Mill, it is my favourite place in Harlow. It is just so beautiful, both the Mill and the Canal outside with the Boats propped up against the Moorings. In fact, as the two pictures above show, there is no better guide to the changing seasons, than seeing Parndon Mill in the Winter and the Spring. When I visited Parndon Mill after Christmas, it was if I had entered Narnia. Yesterday, in the early evening Sunshine, it looked like Aslan had returned.
Inside the Mill, the exhibition was original, and imaginative. Etchings of dog headed men, were particularly unusual. It was good to see the pictures and I enjoyed meeting some friends there, like Mark Cotton. Mark is a particularly lucky architect, as his office is actually inside Parndon Mill, so he works from an office with one of the best views in the County. All in all, going to Parndon Mill Gallery was a wonderful way to spend an hour after work, with good wine too!
