A very odd one this,as it's not a lift,it's a funicular railway.As steep as a pitched house roof,it was built in the Victorian period and was hydraulically powered to start with.

  • I love these old funicular railways! I used to visit the one at Lynmouth / Lynton in north Devon quite regularly. That one is still hydraulically driven. I went on one last year at Bridgnorth in Shropshire too.

    Very nice to see you back on Youtube!

  • @pyestudiocolour Funny old things,and we have TWO here !
