Norfolk Mills website says, "Hoxne watermill was built in 1846 to replace the earlier building of 1749, which in turn replaced an earlier building on the same site. Somewhere just prior to rebuilding, the 1749 building had been converted from corn milling to flax and linen manufacture. Eventually the mill was converted back to corn milling and it may be that this change of use occurred several times throughout its life."
This mill on the River Waveney bridges the bounary of the two counties, Norfolk and Suffolk. It seems that milling ceased in 1937.

Part of a derelict Mill near Norden, Rochdale. Plenty of History around here. Would have been amazing to see the place when all the Mills were up and running, this whole river was loned with them, just ruins remain.
The mill is the subject of an unfinished Turner painting, and is now a site of historic interest on the Isle of Wight, UK.
Slingfield Mill was built in 1864 for Thomas Lea, to the design of architects Lockwood and Mawson of Bradford.

It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The mill was built by Jacob Stover around 1800 and operated continuously until 1955.

Gayle Mill, dating from about 1784, is thought to be the oldest structurally unaltered cotton mill in existence. It is located in the Wensleydale hamlet of Gayle, one mile south of the market town of Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The Grade II listed mill was built by local hosiers and land owners Oswald and Thomas Routh as a water-powered cotton mill, and was originally powered by an overshot water-wheel twenty-two feet in diameter. By 1813, the mill had been turned over to flax and wool spinning, and for a time during the later nineteenth century, it was used for domestic accommodation. As part of the mill's conversion to a saw-mill around 1879, the water-wheel was replaced with a Thomson double-vortex turbine, now thought to be the only remaining working variety of its type, which drove a variety of wood-working machinery via a series of belts and pulleys off a central line shaft.
Gayle Mill closed in 1988, after more than a century of operation as a saw-mill, and it seemed destined to be converted into luxury apartments. Then in 2004, the mill came to national attention after featuring in the second series of BBC2's Restoration programme, winning its regional heat and finishing the national finals in the top three. Restoration of the mill started that same year and took four years to complete at a cost of more than one million pounds. Gayle Mill re-opened to the public in 2008, and is now open throughout the year for tours and heritage skills training courses, with fully restored machines and turbines being demonstrated by the Gayle Mill Trust, the volunteer group that runs and manages the mill on behalf of its owner, the North East Civic Trust.
I converted my original colour shot to mono, and since I preferred the latter, but my wife preferred the former, decided to upload both.
Boott Cotton Mills opened in 1835, and in its heyday swarmed with activity. Thousands of mechanical looms filled its long corridors, and the complex was packed with workers churning out millions of yards of textiles a year. Many of the employees, thanks to another innovation by the founders, were women. Some were children. Factory bosses recruited from the farms of New England to persuade young women to move to town and live in boarding houses near the factories. In fact, women working the mills fought some of the country's early labor and equal rights battles as they organized against 12- to 14-hour days and poor conditions.
The textile industry rolled along, and Boott operated for 120 years. When the industry tanked after World War II, so went Lowell's factories, sending the city into a rough period of unemployment and crime.
India Mill at Darwen was completed for Shorrocks Brothers in 1867 for cotton spinning. The chimney is 24ft square and stands 303 feet tall. The design was by E.Bates of Manchester and built by B. Lloyd of Darwen. The spinning mill closed in 1991 and is now occupied by a variety of businesses. The chimney was in poor condition until in 2007 the top ten feet was rebuilt, a cap put in place and the interior renovated. It is listed Grade II*.
I wish I had my feet in those cold spring waters today!
Autumn in Comer Georgia
One of the most picturesque state parks in Georgia, Watson Mill Bridge contains the longest covered bridge in the state, spanning 229 feet across the South Fork River. Built in 1885 by Washington (W.W.) King, son of freed slave and famous covered-bridge builder Horace King, the bridge is supported by a town lattice truss system held firmly together with wooden pins. At one time, Georgia had more than 200 covered bridges; today, less than 20 remain.

Red Mill Burgers, Interbay, Seattle. Established 1998.
Red Mill takes its name from an older Seattle restaurant, which operated between 1937 and 1967. The two sisters of the owner of the present Red Mill had worked at the original - and brought home food for the family - so the name was chosen as a tribute.
A rare whiting windmill, probably built around 1812 and now listed Grade II. The mill, which originally had five sails, was designed to crush chalk from the nearby quarry as part of the production of whiting.
Whiting - used as a filler in putty, paint and whitewash - was produced in the now demolished whiting works which once adjoined the tower. The remains of this operation can be seen inside the base of the mill’s tower. This includes the wooden crushing tub and vertical edge runner stones that once ground down the chalk, as well the later concrete crushing tub and 6ft millstones that were powered by an electric motor. Four of the mill's original seven floors remain.
