The Pioche Consolidated Mill, AKA the Godbe Mill. Built in 1891 to process ore from Pioche and other nearby mining camps. It was connected to the mines by the Pioche Pacific Railway, and later by an aerial tramway to Treasure Hill.
The mill burned down and was rebuilt twice; once in 1893 and again in 1929. It operated until sometime around 1980.
It now belongs to the County, who graciously allowed a few of us from the #LincolnCountyPhotoFest to photograph it at night.

Salts Mill rises from the heart of Saltaire like a cathedral of industry, its long stone flanks still carrying the warmth of 1853 when Sir Titus Salt first set it humming with life. Once the largest industrial building on earth, its vast floors held the pulse of a working world; now they breathe more softly, home to art, books, and the quiet drift of visitors wandering through light and history.
The mill, now a Grade II* sentinel, stands as both monument and metamorphosis — a place where looms once thundered and where creativity now settles like dust motes in sunbeams. It closed its working eyes in 1986, only to reopen them to a different kind of making.
And behind it all stands Sir Titus Salt, manufacturer, reformer, and dreamer of better lives. His vision shaped not only the mill but the village that grew beside it — a place built with purpose, care, and a belief that industry and humanity need not stand apart.
The first cotton mills in Belper were built by Jedediah Strutt (1726-1797) and subsequent ones by his three sons, William, George and Joseph from 1776 to 1818. They remained the property of the Strutt family until 1897 when they were amalgamated with other mills to form the English Sewing Cotton Company.
The large fortress-like, seven-storey East Mill (seen here) was built in 1912 beside the River Derwent. All the mills, except this and the North Mill (1804), were demolished between 1959 and 1963.
Pinn Mill is located near to Ipswich in Suffolk on the River Orwell. It is the resting ground for several such boats but it leaves an unanswered question which is how and why do they end up dumped here?
Suffolk was the choice of venue for NOPS photographic excursion 2021.

Millness Bridge, on the northern section of the Lancaster Canal, in South Lakeland, Cumbria.
The hope is that one day this section of the Canal will be navigable once again. For now, it's well-managed and teeming with wildlife, making a delightful walk along the towpath, north to Kendal and south to Lancaster, Preston and beyond.
The canal is known as the "Black and White", because it transported coal north to the Lake District, in return for Lime going south for building, agriculture and steel.
Bridge 164 is listed, and this early section of the canal dates back to the 1790s. This is England's most northern Canal, a marvellous heritage.

Brock Mill Pond and head house is in Trenton, North Carolina, one of the small towns along the Beach Road in Southeastern NC. One of a series of shots for Getty. More later. Thanks for the visit and have a restful Sunday.
B&P's RISI moves 7 locomotives and a big train alongside the Clarion River as it makes its way to Johnsonburg and eventually Salamanca.
A more picturesque mill, but its function was the same! Gibson Mill has retained its mill dam as it the whole place was never really affected by any development due to its relative isolation in the Hardcastle Crags valley.
These little buildings are dotted around the Abbey. They are well worth the venture around the area. This place really is a photographers dream. More for the album!
The National Trust opened the glorious Secret Garden at Quarry Bank. Riverside walks, meandering paths and raised beds are some of the features that have been rediscovered during restoration work.
Built in 1784 Quarry Bank was one of the world's first factories and became a thriving cotton mill at a defining moment in our history
The Crystal Mill, or the Old Mill is an 1892 wooden powerhouse located on an outcrop above the Crystal River in Crystal, Colorado, Crystal was a big town in late 18th. Then, it became a ghost town in early 19th. Since the road to there is not well maintained, this place can only be accessed via 4x4.
Knowing it would be snow at night, my friend and I decided to do backpack camping there. We packed our stuff and hit on the road around 2 pm in afternoon. After a half mile uphill hiking, we came to an intersection. I wasn't sure which direction to go so I asked a guy who drove a pickup truck. I guess that person didn't hear me clearly, he pointed us to a wrong direction. After one mile hiking uphill, we felt it was wrong because we didn't see any other hikers or vehicles. So, we came down to the intersection and tried the different direction.
On that road we met some other hikers and local tour vehicles. We knew we were on the right path so we kept going. Since we took a wrong road at the beginning and we wasted more than 1 hour and a lot of energy. By 5 pm we were still on the road without knowing how far away we were from our destination. Suddenly, I heart a sound of motor and a tour vehicle stopped beside me. The lady who drove the car told me that they heart our story about taking a wrong way and they were worry about us because it was pretty late. She said she dropped her customer in her place and came back for us. She asked us to get on her car and drove us to Crystal Mill. Since she helped us to get there sooner, we had enough time to look around the place and setup tent.
Next morning, when we got up we were very excited as we had snow and whole place just for two of us. We climbed up and down, went front and back to take Crystal Mill pictures from different angles. After 2 hours of shooting, we packed our stuff and started to walk back. About a half mile of our walk, a person drove a truck came to us. He is a resident in Crystal town and he came to check on us to make sure we were OK during the snow. After a while, another person from Marble side came to us too. He said they were worry about two of us whole night and he came to take us back. Since we want to shoot more snow pictures on the way back, we thanked his kindly offers and walked all the way back to our car.
Now, every time when I looked at my Crystal Mill pictures, I remember those people's warm smiles. Many thanks to the people from Marble and Crystal.

I live less of an hour from Mabry Mill the most photographed subject on the Blue Ridge Parkway. So at least once a year I feel obliged to go there. Fall season is the best time of the year because the trees color and reflections in the water create a special atmosphere. Late afternoon is also the best time to be there because the side light and the fact there are no hundreds of people....
Mabry Mill was originally constructed in 1905 by Ed and Lizzie Mabry. It was in operation by 1908 and was used by many in the region who brought their corn to be ground. The mill had a lack of water power, earning it a reputation as a "slow mill," but because of this, the mill would not grind too fast or scorch the corn, which resulted in the Mabry's mill being known for producing some of the finest tasting corn meal in the region. Ed would eventually construct a sawmill and woodworking shop alongside the grist mill, and a number of the tools he used in the shop were powered by the waterwheel. He would also go on to build a nearby blacksmith shop (and a distillery for Moonshine...). Ed Mabry passed away in 1938 and the National Park Service purchased the property from Lizzie. The Park Service completely restored the facility in 1942 and continues to preserve the area as a celebration of the rich culture of Virginia's Blue Ridge.The mill still stands as a unique symbol of the region's heritage and has attracted visitors from around the world (www.visitroanokeva.com/things-to-do/blue-ridge-parkway/ma...).
This is for now my last image on the Blue Ridge Parkway series.
Fountains Abbey Mill is the only 12th-century Cistercian corn mill left in the UK and the oldest 'intact' building on the estate. It survived the closure of the Abbey in 1539 as it was able to generate an income for the estate; of £3 per year! It continued to mill grain right up to 1927 while at one time the water wheel powered a sawmill as well.
This flour mill was established in 1861, and it continues to grow producing Tasmania's finest flour products.
One of several magnificent waterfalls on Paddock Beck which runs toward Askrigg in Wenselydale. Mill Gill Force is just beautiful, cutting its way into a gorge with lush vegetation around it. A lot easier to access than Whitfield Gill Force too.

White Mill is a National Trust Property.
An 18th-century corn mill in a peaceful, rural setting. Rebuilt in 1776 on a site marked in the Domesday Book, this substantial mill was extensively repaired in 1994 and still retains its original elm and applewood machinery (now too fragile to be used).

Este moinho de origem oriental, caracteriza-se por ser construÃdo em madeira.
Assenta sobre uma circunferencia, sobre a qual rodam duas rodas também de pedra em torno de um eixo central.
Enquanto nos moinhos tradicionais só o telhado roda, nestes roda todo o conjunto sobre a circuferencia de pedra para encontrar a direcção do vento.
Cranbrook Windmill was built for Mary Dobell by the Cranbrook millwright, James Humphrey, in 1814, just before the end of the Napoleonic Wars, to set up her son, Henry, in business. After Napoleon was defeated in 1815, there was a great depression in England and many businesses went into bankruptcy, including Henry Dobell's in 1819. As a result, it was conveyed to and operated by a union of creditors, local farmers and businessmen, hence the name, "Union Mill". When Mary Dobell's debts had been paid off, it was sold to John and George Russell in 1832 and remained in the Russell family until the death of John's great grandson, another John Russell, in 1958.
