It's that time of year again - Settle's Flowerpot Festival, Every day during July and August. It gets bigger and better each year and must bring thousands of visitors to Settle.
Meet Frankenstein's Monster, carefully and firmly secured to the water crane yesterday. Complete with neck hinge (I'm jealous) F.M. was made in Settle's Flowerpot Men Factory during the year. He is a work of mechanical FP genius but parts are fragile and it was felt he needed to be somewhere secure and out of reach of mischief. Our water crane, behind our Midland Railway fence ticks some of those boxes.
Unseen from the station drive are some pretty sophisticated metal brackets and ratchet-strapwork. Time will tell if it is adequate.
