My first trip into London on the Central line(apart from going to Stratford to get my first Covid jab) for more than a year.
Walked round the canals from Mile End down to the Thames and then up the Limehouse cut to Stratford.
Three Mill is a tidal mill on the Lea.

Really nice to get out somewhere different.
This is a wider view of Mabry Mill in Virginia. Again, the lighting was awful even between 5-6 pm. The color shots I took, even the HDR did nothing for me. But in infrared, the lighting was perfect. I even managed to get the nasty goose in the shot. He did come to chase me after I took this photo.
Built by Ted Sawle, Sr. in 1850, Hyde's Mill is located on Mill Creek in rural Ridgeway, WI. Thanks fo fellow Flickrite, Jim Sisko (Siskokid) for posting a photo of this mill that sparked my interest to hunt it down. (In case you're interested, this mill and the historic house down the street are for sale!)

I have digitally restored the image to de-fade it and to redraw features where an overlay had been peeled off leaving partly covered features and glue marks.
The waterfall at Barry Mill.
I headed out early and got the whole place to myself. It was a great walk around the mill without any dog walkers.
The waterfall itself creates a massive roar and draws you in. The bank beside it is pretty slippy and access across the burn can be treacherous, I left pondering whether the angles on the stream would be better from the other side. theres always next time.
An early morning view of my "office" on a fairly damp and foggy 27th September.
Skidby Mill is a working windmill which has operated almost continuously since 1821 and includes the Museum of East Riding Rural Life in it's associated outbuildings.
The mill, which is mentioned in the Domesday book, has had many incarnations. As a linen mill it processed flax and supplied canvas to the Royal Navy but when industry declined it was developed into a foundry with a blast furnace and was one of the first places to make the new threshing machines in the West of England. It went on to build boilers, steam lorries and gas engines as well as gaining a reputation as a builder of water wheels. During the First World War Mills Bombs, better know as the hand grenade, were produced here in vast quantities. After the Gasper dam burst upriver in the summer of 1917, much of the machinery was washed from the factory and it took a number of years for industry to restart on the site. When it did return in 1933 the factory entered its final phase as a dried milk processing plant and this continued up until its closure in 1998. It is now derelict with many of the oldest buildings in a state of collapse.
From the Mill of Kintail, of course. I cropped into portrait mode from a wider landscape shot. Happy Friday, everybody.
The new owners intended to restore the historic hotel, but found that the structure was unsalvageable. They demolished it in late 1968 (but saved the ironwork and cornices to reinstall)[6] and built a 217-room replica with a largely faithful facade, only increased from five to seven stories. A three-story, brick building to the south (111 Meeting Street) was also razed to make way for a side entrance to the new hotel and a garden area.
The original 79-foot iron balcony across the front was replaced with a 75-foot version, and some changes were made to the window cornices (the cornices on the first two floors were cast from originals, but upper floors received different cornices that the original).
nrhp # 16000527- The Brightwells Mill Complex historic 19th-century mill complex at 684 Brightwells Mill Road in Madison Heights, Amherst County, Virginia. It includes a reconstructed 1826 wood-frame mill, dam, miller's house, a number of outbuildings, and a small cemetery. The dam and mill both date to 1942, when a flash flood destroyed 19th-century structures. The mill was rebuilt using materials salvaged from the 1826 mill, while the dam was rebuilt in concrete. The mill was used to process the grain of local farmers until 1965.[2]
The complex was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.

A visit to Lancaster should always include a visit to Rock Mill. Midday sun was glaring, and not a cloud in the sky made for some challenging shots and editing. There were workers at the site, so NO sneaking down to the creek for a shot of the wheel and falls. I did remove some equipment and other distractions from the shots, but left a worker in 1 of the pics. 4 other views in the comments below. Hope to plan a trip when conditions are better.
The grist mill at Walnford Park, Upper Freehold, NJ.
Another shot from the archives. This is one of those shots that I thought would have a bit more life to it than ended up being the case.

Plainwell is a small city in southwest Michigan between Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids. This fine old mill with a bright red roof sits along the rail line, now operated by the Grand Elk Railroad. I took this photo on September 25, 2015 when Marsha and I stopped for ice cream on our way to Saugatuck.

It's wet, windy and pretty unpleasant here this morning, so I thought I'd post a shot from a few days ago when the sun shone. It had been very wet in the morning as you can probably see from the lane leading up to the mill, which was like a shallow stream in places. There has been a mill on this site since the 18th century, but the old mill was stripped down and has been lovingly and painstakingly restored over the past 30 years or so by a group of volunteers. How immensely satisfying it must have been to see the sweeps (as they're known in Sussex) turn again after all that time.
Heygates flour mill and the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal. Tring, Hertfordshire, 17th April 2006.
The odd retailer Mill End, which billed itself as the "World's Most Unusual Store,"closed in (I believe) 2006 and the building was razed in 2012.
Shortly after some modern lofts and commercial development was built on the site and the Mill End name (and original sign) was kept.
