Just downriver from Mill Shoals Falls on NC 215. Easy access but very slippery. Each leaf is like greased lightening !

Superb cold and frosty morning with a lovely amount of mist and clouds for this Norfolk sunrise at Horsey drainage mill.
Being chauffeured around with the usual good banter, watching wildlife, drama from frozen misted up filters and a soggy remote release, scouting a couple of new places and bagging a shot I've wanted for a while.... yep, superb :)
The General Mills plant in Buffalo as far as I am aware no longer produces Gold Medal flour but still makes Cheerios, Lucky Charms, & Chex cereal.
Week 16 of 52 of 2014. The theme is LANDSCAPE. I thought of using another sunrise photo from my back deck for this week's theme, but instead decided for something different. Sixes Mill, also known as Gresham's Mill, is located in Holly Springs, GA about 30 miles north of Atlanta. Well over 100 years old, the mill is preserved on private property that's surrounded by suburban shopping centers and subdivisions.

Kings Mill viaduct
Mansfield
Nottinghamshire
Good Friday
April 2nd, 2021.
Kings Mill viaduct was built in 1817 on the route of the Mansfield-Pinxton Railway, a horse-drawn railway. It is the oldest railway viaduct in England and a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
This is a scene down the road a mile from me...I always love hearing the train at night. There used to be a huge paper mill here but it closed acouple years ago...I miss it! It used to provide 300 jobs for the area and I sure hate seeing it sit empty....so sad! Hope everyone is having a nice week. I have no energy to do anything but sit around. Looks like it's gonna snow...I feel very down...:( Photography is good medicine for that!
From vintage postcard (no date on it) describing this as "The mill stream waterfall at The Old Mill, Ancaster Ontario".

The Howk was one of the most northerly of more than 100 bobbin mills in Cumbria.The fast flowing rivers of the Lake District being ideal as a source of power for the mills.
At one time Lakeland mills accounted for about half the bobbins produced in Britain. The Howk mill also made handles for picks, washing dollies and cartwheel spokes.
This windmill dates back to 1832 and is constructed of coursed rubble stone with red brick den tilled eaves and cambered lintels. No roof or floors remain in the 4 storey mill although some tie beams are still in-situ. The stone tablet dated 1832 can be found over the main entrance door facing westwards. Apparently in 1895 a storm blew the cap off but despite this the building continued to be used until 1908. Now it stands lonely in the middle of a farmerâs field inviting its picture to be taken.
Gibbet Mill, Tillingham Mill, Barry's Mill or New Mill
A mill has stood on this site since 1596, and a post mill is known to have been built here in 1758. Gibbet Mill was built in 1824, the name Barry's mill coming from an early miller. The mill was working by wind until 1912, and was used as a bakery until 13 June 1930 when it was burnt down. The New Mill was erected in 1932, Neve's of Heathfield being responsible for the millwrighting work.
As built, Gibbett Mill was a four storey smock mill on a single storey brick base, with a stage at first floor level. In 1844 she had four Patent sails but latterly was worked with four Spring sails. These were carried in a cast iron Windshaft. The cap was in the Kentish style, winded by a fantail. The mill drove three pairs of millstones.
The replica mill has a shorter smock, making the mill appear squatter than the original. The cap is exaggerated in height and is not designed to turn into the wind. Replica sails and fantail are carried. The reconstructed stage is wider than the original.

A wet and muddy morning and a few mills. An early start with a short drive to explore with Martyn, Camerashy - uk and MkWil.
Tone Mills is a complete water-powered cloth finishing works, established by the Fox Brothers and Co at the confluence of the River Tone and the Back Stream and dates from 1830. The remains of the water wheel remain in-situ and so too do all the line shafting and gearing. The Mill later had an electric motor installed to supplement the water-wheel during times of drought, although the water wheel continued to be used for many decades after. Put simply the mill comprises of a number of key areas to accommodate the various stages of production: A Fulling area, where wet cloth was dried, scoured, cleaned and milled to the desired finish. A dying room, adjacent to the fulling area which specialised in producing an indigo colouring. Reservoirs and Sluice gates, to manage the flow of water into the wheel chamber. The wheel chamber and a later power house.
The associated machinery for all the stages of production are all in-situ, making it an industrial archaeologists paradise.
The works finally closed in 2000 and production was moved to a more contemporary location. The buildings and machinery are Grade II* listed.

The Consett Iron Company Ltd was an industrial business based in the Consett area of County Durham. The company owned coal mines and limestone quarries, and manufactured iron and steel. It was registered on 4 April 1864 as successor to the Derwent & Consett Iron Company Ltd.
The company's seven collieries and various coke ovens came into the ownership of the National Coal Board, when British coal companies were nationalised in 1947. The Consett Iron Company itself was nationalised in 1951, becoming part of the Iron and Steel Corporation of Great Britain. The Consett steelworks was privatised in 1955, and a new steel plate mill was opened in 1961 to supply the shipbuilding industry. About 6000 workers were employed at the works at that time. It was renationalised in 1967. The Consett Iron Company was absorbed into British Steel Corporation in 1967, and the location became known as the Consett Steel Works. British Steel Consett Works was closed in 1980.
Against this bleak backdrop in April 1977, stands a Marshall bodied Leyland Leopard of Northern General in NBC livery. Its bodywork was built to BET style, reflecting the point that the company was once part of the BET federation.
Wolverton Gold Mill. Originally commenced in 1921 by Edwin Thatcher Wolverton in an attempt to realize dreams of an elusive Spanish gold mine hidden in the tops of the Henry Mountains. It is unknown if Wolverton ever actually found the old mine but from time to time he came to town with a pouch of gold despite the curse placed on the old mine by an Indian medicine man.
"To Whomever reopens these workings will come great calamity. His blood will turn to water, and even in his youth he will be an old man. His squaws and papooses will die, the earth will bring forth for him only poison weed instead of corn."
He escaped at least one part of the curse since he didn't begin building the mill until he was sixty years old. Wayne County, Utah.
The present mill, Loddon watermill near the town centre which is no longer functioning, was built in the 18th century with the river diverted to run underneath it. Loddon watermill was sometimes known as Chedgrave mill and is one of the earliest recorded buildings in the town.
It was built of weatherboard with a pantiled roof, and was situated quite close to the centre of the town. The mill pool was never very big, but was apparently a widened and deepened Y-shaped section of river up stream of the mill. This produced adequate power for the miller to meet the needs of the local farmers and villagers. The mill still retains 19th-century milling equipment.
This mill was erected in 1802 and ground corn for Rottingdean village until 1881.
It has been restored and is now maintained by

On 2 day Road trips. You're more or less, limited. To how you will shoot your pictures. By the weather conditions. and there is a thin line between partly cloudy and full sun. Personally I prefer cloudy days. In retrospect, Vermont has many spots nicer than what I saw at the Weston Old Mill, not my Ideal Weather but Iâd still rank it a nine out of 10 scenic Vermont destination. The Early morning sun left deep shadows on the mill, which keeps it on my return trip list.
