I wasn't sure what to expect heading up there, but I'm certainly glad to drive a Subaru, as the only other vehicles I encountered were Jeeps and ATV's on a gnarly 4x4 access road. The journey was as fun as the destination!

One of the 19 mills of the Kinderdijk in Holland during a winter sunset. Most of the skaters were gone and they only left the scratches on the ice. In the middle the rising moon is visible. I know it is a cliche but I just wanted to make some typical old fashioned Dutch winter shots, ice skaters and mills included... So be aware, some more will follow...

"Mille chevaux d'écume
Galopent,
Galopent à la lune,
Galopent
Au-dessus des dunes.
Des chevaux lumières
Claquent leurs crinières
Quand tu joues,
Quand tu joues."

J T and J Taylor, the largest woollen manufacturers in Batley developed an extensive business in the nineteenth cewntury with several mills. Early 20th-century prosperity led to the construction of this very large mill (five storeys, twenty-five bays) in 1912-13 It was probably electrically powered. Today it has been converted to apartments.
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.
Behind the ridge of the milll is the top of a tall chimney that is part of a steam engine shed added to the mill.
Not a bad sunset, is it? I didn't know what the construction work was for, but I have since learned they're building a new bridge across the water.
I love discussing photography by the way. But I find discussions about photography tend to actually be discussions about cameras. What are your thoughts on this? I recently wrote on it here.
Many years ago this pond was the heart of a large saw mill. Day in and day out the mill converted wood logs into lumber, servicing homes businesses and dozens of mines in the area.
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.
Much of the Mill Dam, near Dunkeld, was frozen. The felled trees on the right is the result of beaver activity.
This mill is part of the Tolkein Trail , it was a childhood haunt of Tolkein and is believed to have influenced his writing

I coundn't resist having a play with hdr with my mill shots from How Hill. This photo was the perfect candidate as it was a bit flat before the conversion, now I really like it.

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 was for many years spinning yarn for the carpet industry and after this ended in 1980 the mill has been converted for Debenhams on the lower floors and above as a Premier Inn. The boiler house and chimney nearby are now an Italian restaurant and listed Grade II along with the main mill.

The Stover Myers Mill is a watermill located on the Tohickon Creek in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The mill was built by Jacob Stover around 1800 and operated continuously until 1955. It used a millstone to grind flour and feed for livestock using power from a waterwheel. The mill was equipped with an up-and-down saw and also operated as a lumber mill. The property was purchased by Bucks County in 1967 and is open to the public.
On a recent trip to Scotland I ran across this old stone mill along the Thurso River. The fishing was poor, but the photographic opportunities were many!!
The giant 400,000 sq ft building slowly decays and awaits it's fate. My last image of the Middletown Boxboard building. Now surplus and owned by Newark Converting.

A Grade 2 listed,restored and fully functioning 18th Century brick built water mill in New Hall Country Park in Sutton Coldfield.
A lease dated 20th September 1709 shows that the mill was once owned by George Sacheverell.Much later, in 1970, Sir Alfred Owen decided to restore the mill to full working order, and flour is still milled today on public open days
That goofy grin is because I'm thinking about the part in the Art of Courtly Love where the lady turns the guy down because of his fat calves.
Hodgson Mill, in the Ozark Mountains of southern Missouri.
This is considered to be one of the most photographed buildings in all of Missouri. And I can believe it, because it's a beautiful building in a beautiful setting. A spring pours out from beneath a bluff, passing under a mill that dates back to 1897. The waters of the spring gather in a small pond before cascading over a waterfall.
23 million gallons of water flow from the spring every day, creating this creek. The first mill was built here in 1861. The current mill building was built in 1897 after the original building burned. The mill sits right above the spring, which is the 19th largest in Missouri.
