Purton Hulks Ships Graveyard.

The Purton Hulks or Purton Ships' Graveyard. A number of abandoned boats and ships, deliberately beached beside the River Severn near Purton in Gloucestershire, England, to reinforce the river banks. Most were beached in the 1950's and are now in a state of considerable decay. The site forms the largest ship graveyard in mainland Britain.
A riverbank collapse in 1909 led to concerns that the barrier between the river and the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal would be breached. Old vessels were run aground and soon filled with water and silt to create a tidal erosion barrier. The vessels included steel barges, Severn trows and concret
e ships. The boats came from throughout the British Isles and were built in the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th.

AEROdrone I’ve never even owned a remote car so it’s a big learning curve, hence my video when I hit the wrong stick and nearly lost it. Am loving it though and can’t wait for better weather, it’s all thanks to videos like this that’s helping me. They are brilliant 👍🏻

Some really nice shots! Found you through ikopta channel. I also find it hard to make short videos!!

[@adtheehee]

Cheers for the comment Lee.. and yeah, I find making short vids are hard to do, especially when I Try to sync it to a track.. why stop?
I've checked couple of your vids out, you live in a great area for droning. Keep up the good work dude!

[@LeeEveritt]

Thank you for having a look. I'm still learning to be honest! When you find the right music for a project it's difficult to stop halfway through, you're right - why stop!
Look forward to seeing some more or your videos.
