I guess the real prize of our hike was seeing two Chilean mill stones, or wheels, left over from the gold mining operation at this location.
The idea behind this type of mill is that a machine was composed of two rotating wheels, revolving over a pan filled with gold-bearing rocks, which in turn, would then crush rocks so the gold could be extracted.
This link will take you to some Google photos of mills.

In 1815, William Fleming, a young Scottish immigrant, built the first mill, which would later become the issue of a long trial with the Sulpicians, the seigniors of the island of Montréal. Miller Fleming built the present-day mill in 1827. He innovated by building an imposing Anglo-Saxon type mill, unique in all of Québec. Although it stopped being used around 1891, the mill was summarily restored by the Burroughs Wellcome firm in 1930. LaSalle acquired it, as well as the surrounding land, in 1947. Classified as a historical monument on January 13, 1983, by Québec's Ministère des Affaires culturelles, the mill was restored in 1990. An interpretation centre and a country theatre now welcome the public every weekend during the summer.(Description source: city of Montreal website)

Alport Mill on the River Lathkill. Previously a healthy stretch of river, a hydro power scheme has robbed the river of vital flow, destroying the native flora and fauna.
I spent yesterday shooting with a fellow flickrite, Sandersonjack15. Jack roams the backroads and mountain trails often hiking and four wheeling to some of the remotest regions in the state. Coming from a mining family he is a walking cornucopia of information on the mines and their workings. I was lucky enough to accompany him to the Magnolia mill outside of Alma,Colorado. I always considered him a great photographer, and now a real friend. I hope to do more exploring with him. His images of mining camps and mills (which are fading fast) will assure future generations of a reminder of a past and glorious industry for years to come. check out his flickr stream....you will not be dissapointed. sandersonjack15
Located in the town of Montgomery. Founded August 22 1861 two years after gold was discovered in the area.By 1862 Montgomery had 150 cabins, five sawmills, three hotels and the largest dancehall in the region.The towns people named 14,286 ft Mt. Lincoln after the current President and sent him a bar of gold from the Montgomery mine.By the late 1860's the gold had played out and the residents had moved south to Buckskin Joe.The city of Colorado Springs bought the site in the late 1890's to construct the reservoir and most of the towns remains are lost beneath the waters of the lake.

The Crystal Mill situated on the Crystal River outside of Marble, Colorado is certainly a sight to behold. You will not be disappointed...provided of course you survive the bone jarring 4x4 drive to get to it. This late 1800's powerhouse is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
If it were a perfect world, I would gladly leave my normally unobtrusive watermark off in a corner. But sadly, it is not. And so I am forced to now place it front & center to discourage dishonest people from image theft and cropping watermarks. My apologies to image loving fans everywhere...I trust you will understand. Help fight this by reporting such abuses immediately!

This is a small collection of photos of feed mills that can be found in the downtown of Petaluma. Petaluma's skyline is scattered with these mills that give our small town character and reminds us of the history of our city.

2nd shot of yesterdays marathon shoot. I have decided I will upload the "normal" postcard type shots first then the more angular, cropped and maybe more interesting shots of these different locations.
Stembridge Tower Mill in High Ham, Somerset, England is the last remaining thatched windmill in England. It is the last survivor of five windmills that once existed in the area.
Constructed in 1822, including parts from the earlier Ham Mill which stood nearby and last used commercially in 1910. In 1969 Professor H. H. Bellot left the windmill, cottage and garden to the National Trust in his will. The mill has four floors, a thatched cap and is constructed of local limestone known in the area as Blue Lias

Built 1907 by the Hartford Mill (Oldham)Co Ltd. Extended 1920 and 1924. Closed 1959 and used by Littlewoods as a mail order warehouse until 1992.
Architect was F W Dixon, there were 120,000 spindles and power was provided by a very impressive 1500 hp Urmson & Thompson engine.
After years of neglect Oldham Council have managed to get it de-listed by English Heritage and the demolition team moved in in less that a week. Another bit of local history lost for ever.
A view of our house from across the pond. Taken near Thanksgiving Day last year after a fresh and heavy inch or two of wet snow. This is where I do the majority of my bird and insect photography. Such a great variety. I have been trying to document all the species of fauna here and compile it in a photo album for future generations. It is a project I can hopefully continue for many years to come. Mill Pond has been nurtured and protected by my wife's family since 1949. Yes, I feel very lucky to be able to spend time here. I love this place. So does Weezer.

Wasn't particularly pleased with any of the interiors I shot at the silk mill. Might revisit these in the future when DXO releases their optics module for the 7-14mm f/2.8.
DCR grid 56103 passes through Slitting Mill with 6Y85 1015 Chaddesden to York. Not the best light, but better than it was a few seconds earlier! 31st October 2014.
A three-span non authentic Stringer truss 151' 5" over Mill Rock Creek. Located: Northeast of Zingara, Georgia on Haralson Mill Road. Construction of the new bridge at this site was necessitated due to the planned raising of the water level of Big Haynes Reservoir, that, at certain times of the year would have inundated the roadway. It replaced an authentic historic covered bridge.
