Live Webcam View
The camera taking this view is positioned in the window of the upper floor of Bracken House and looks down onto the paddock and stables. To the left of the paddock is the top of the wildflower meadow area whilst behind the stables is the open land between Bracken House and Millington Springs Nursing Home.
The camera used is an Axis M1011-W network camera. The camera is configured to create a Motion JPEG image which is uploaded to the Axis servers and is served to this web page from there.
The camera is connected to the Bracken House network via an Airport Express device which is in turn connected to the network wirelessly. Although a wireless device in itself, the camera did not have a strong enough signal to pass through the internal walls of the property to the network router.
The camera also takes a snapshot approximately every five minutes during daylight hours. This image has the latest weather conditions stamped on it and is loaded into an archive which displays the last 1,000 of these five minute images. The latest image in the acrchive is displayed below (refresh the page to update the image).
