Beside our hotel in Sorrento is a huge crack in the earth from an earthquake 20,000 years ago.
In the crack, below street level, is a drain and an abandoned 5 story building. (I took the pic at street level)
Steve asked how old the building was. I couldn't see a sign anywhere so I took a punt and said 'well maybe they abandoned it 50 years ago looking at the foliage'.
What the hell would I know. It turned out to be a Roman flour mill that is over 1500 years old!
As we say a lot these days, 'holy crapola'...
