Swaffham Prior is unique in the UK – it has two windmills in close proximity both with their sails!
The mills worked together from 1896 until 1927, with Fosters Mill gristing animal feed and the Smock Tower mill (built around 1820) providing flour for human consumption. Then, on an horrendous autumn night, during an almighty storm, the Smock Tower Mill was struck by lightening and the sails and going gears badly damaged.
I have had the Glade Creek Grist Mill in Babcock State Park on the list of structures I've wanted to photograph for a while. I put togethe a jigsaw puzzle of it when I was a boy. Even then, it was an old jigsaw puzzle my grandmother had, so it gives you an idea of how old this structure is. You have to go to West Virginia to see it and we were lucky enough to be there when the leaves were turning. We have been fortunate enough these past couple of years to be in really nice parts of the country to see fall colors. This image will have to find it's way to a wall in our home. Who knows, maybe I'll have a jigsaw puzzle made of it for us and others to enjoy. Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
Whissendine Mill is a 6 storey mill built in 1809 by the Earl's of Harborough of Stapleford Park.
The mill worked until 1922 when it was damaged by a gale and not repaired.
It was sold to its present owner Nigel Moon in 2005 and has since had a new cap and 4 new sails. In 2009 the mill worked again by wind.
Starr's Mill is in south Fayette County, GA. It's painted a vivid red, and almost everybody who shoots it does so in color. I think black and white lends to the design element(s) in photography, so I used Tri-X for this, with a Leica M2 and 35mm f/2 Summicron.
Logan Mills Covered Bridge is the last historic bridge that is still standing in the county. Built in 1874 by an unknown builder, Logan Mills Covered Bridge was, as so many other covered bridges in the state are, named after a local mill.

The Pin Mill building on the Canal Terrace at Bodnant Garden was added in 1938. Originally built in 1730 in Gloucestershire, it was rescued from decay by Henry McLaren, who dismantled it, brought to Bodnant and rebuilt it brick by brick.
Bodnant Garden is a National Trust property near Tal-y-Cafn, Conwy, Wales, overlooking the Conwy Valley towards the Carneddau mountains.
Founded in 1874 and developed by five generations of one family, it was gifted to the National Trust in 1949. The garden spans 80 acres of hillside and includes formal Italianate terraces, informal shrub borders stocked with plants from around the world, The Dell, a gorge garden, a number of notable trees and a waterfall. Since 2012, new areas have opened including the Winter garden, Old Park Meadow, Yew Dell and The Far End, a riverside garden. Furnace Wood and Meadow opened in 2017. There are plans to open more new areas, including Heather Hill and Cae Poeth Meadow.
Bodnant Garden was visited by over 270,000 people in 2019 and is famous for its Laburnum arch, the longest in the UK, which flowers in May and June. The garden is also celebrated for its link to the plant hunters of the early 1900s whose expeditions formed the base of the garden's four National Collections of plants – Magnolia, Embothrium, Eucryphia and Rhododendron forrestii.
Slightly later and stiller so you could see the reflection clearly and red sky developing. the photo is taken looking south east and there wasn't one of those sunsets that lit up the whole sky

The "Red Mill" is a 4-story grist mill and historic site located along the south branch of the Raritan River in Clinton, New Jersey. It was built around 1810 as an industrial mill. It has served several roles, including a wool processing plant, a peach basket factory, and a textile mill. It is now a museum that is part of the Red Mill Museum Village, and is on the National Register of Historic Places under the name David McKinney Mill. (Wikipedia)

The building dates to 1772 as "Lee's Merchant Mill," grinding grain for a small Quaker community. The mill and its surrounding buildings are all on the National Register of Historic Places.

Historic Mill in Laconia, New Hampshire, built in 1853. The mill once manufactured knitted hosiery, powered by the plentiful waters of the Winnipesaukee River. The building is now utilized as office space for doctors and lawyers. To the left is the power house for the Avery dam, and off in the distance is the Belknap Mill. To the right is Laconia City Hall.

At one time there were 37 water mills on or near the River Wye along the 11 miles from its source at West Wycombe to the the Thames at Bourne End. Pann Mill is one of the few remaining, and the only one in operation.
Milling has long been associated with the River Wye - the first record of Pann Mill is in the Domesday census of 1086, one of six mills on the river at the time. The first Pann Mill was probably associated with the Hospital of St John the Baptist, the ruins of which are still visible in Easton Street opposite the mill. The records of 100 years later show that the mill was then owned by the Pinel family, and it is probably from this family that Pann Mill derived it's name.
Ownership of the mill changed many times over the years, and an archaeological dig discovered that major rebuilding took place on at least 3 occasions. The oldest remains found dated from the 14th century.
The most recent mill was built in 1759, with a new waterwheel and milling machinery fitted in around 1860. Commercial milling ended in 1967, and in 1971 the mill buildings and the associated miller's house were demolished as a part of a road widening scheme. The road widening did not take place as originally planned, so the High Wycombe Society undertook some restoration of the mill and its machinery.
The present, much smaller, mill building was designed by a Society member, Colin Kennedy, originally to preserve the machinery remaining from the demolition. A significant donation of funds from Marks & Spencer, to celebrate their centenary in 1984, together with concerted fundraising by the Society, enabled the building to be erected. Of course, once the building existed it needed to be filled!
The previous mill had the traditional three floors, whereas the present building has only two. The top floor was a grain store. Sacks of grain were hauled up by a sack hoist and stored until needed. Subsequent movement of grain was as much as possible by gravity. In the present mill grain is still stored on the top floor, but in bins close to the mill stones.

Hyde's Mill, built in 1850, is one of the very few mills left which is powered by a wooden waterwheel in Wisconsin. It is located in Ridgeway in Iowa County in Southwest Wisconsin, and consists of a wooden waterwheel, dam and mill pond. Although the mill is no longer functioning, it has still become one of Wisconsin photographers' favorite subjects due to its scenic beauty and historic value.
I knew this mill a couple of years ago, but didn't have much motivation to capture it - simply because every one took the similar photo from the same vantage point, and moving beyond that point is not allowed. In this weekend, I visited Nick Bristol's amazing landscape photography show near Spring Green, and found that Hyde's Mill was only 20 min's drive from the show, plus the sunset seemed to be promising. So there was no reason not going to visit this famous mill. And I was happy with my decision - I arrived there at the right time for the light, and the fall color was still there as well.
Nobody wants to see smoke from the California fires (or the fires themselves), but it can make for some interesting shots. Normally the smoke is not bad here, but this was taken on October 7th at Harrison Mills, and there was still a fair amount of smoke in areas.
