We had attempted to hike in on a Monday, but went in the wrong direction, by the time we turned around, it had started to storm/rain so we decided to turn back...this is after I had decided to drive there and Keiko decide we needed to hike after I turned a corner (which I later found out was called, "oh shit corner". The reason for the hiking suggestions...Keiko had decided I was not competent enough to drive there...We then took a jeep tour to Crystal Mills and the ghost town of Crystal. After taking the tour, I wouldn't have had a problem driving this road...LOL...but I don't know if Keiko would have ridden with me!!!

When I was over at my Dad's today he showed me these pics which he took from glass plates owned by an elderly relative. They show the inside of a paper mill, we think in Burntisland in Fife. Someone might have a use for them or have more info?
These old mills are part of a complex that has been turned into a casino and will be turned into a museum. For now, they are behind steel fences and the best view we could get was from Nisky Hill Cemetery behind them. From a distance, they look like a dark and broody version of the Emerald City of Oz.

nrhp # 76000353- McCosh Mill is located in Alabama, but can only be accessed through Georgia. The Mill and house were both burned down by vagrants in the 80/90's but the foundation of both still can be seen along with the ruins of the dam and spillway that ran the mill. It is listed as haunted, saying that the miller killed his wife and lover and they prowl the area, however the older locals say this did not happen. Many locals and people from the surrounding area visit the mill on a regular basis to fish, swim, sunbathe and just hang out. It consists of the upper Mill pond and rocky rapids below the pond.

Folds Mill, Folds Rd, Little Bolton was opened in 1884 by Arthur Bromiley and Co, Ltd., cotton spinners and manufacturers, with 700 looms manufacturing, shirtings, cambrics, jacquards, dobbies, etc. By 1938 the mill was in use as a printing works and from the 1960s - 1980s Marston Radiators. The lettering B A S stands for Britain's Aquatic Superstore which has been based here from at least 1985.
The name of the manufacturer of the water tank, Witter & Son, is shown in the centre panel of the left face. Witter & Son of Crown Works, Bolton, were manufacturers of fire protection equipment. It is likely to have been installed to supply an automatic sprinkler system in the mill. Their 'Witter' sprinkler has been extensively used in many countries.

Howe Bridge Cotton Spinning Co was registered in 1868 and built four mills in Atherton. By 1891 it was the fourth largest cotton spinning firm in Lancashire and by 1922 had raised capacity to 700,000 spindles. The last mill, seen here in the background, was built in 1919. It closed as a textile factory in early 1999.

This is the Pemberton Mill which stands today by Canal Street in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The steel trusses are part of a bridge which crosses the canal, from where I took the picture. My friend, Tim, and I marveled at the enduring strength of this and other great mill buildings in the area, and how it seemed that no expense had been spared in their construction.
Upon researching the history of this mill, however, I found that the story is more complicated. The original Pemberton Mill collapsed without warning in 1860 in one of Massachusetts’ worst industrial accidents, trapping 900 in the rubble and ultimately killing more than 120 people.
That building was five stories high, 84 feet wide, and 280 feet long. It was only 7 years old when it collapsed. Evidently, faulty iron pillars which supported the floors and weak mortar in the brick walls were the cause.
The 1862 Boston Almanac reported: "The Pemberton Mills at Lawrence, Mass., through a defect in the cast-iron columns supporting the interior of the building, fall-in while nearly 800 operatives are at work, and bury many in the ruins. About four hours after the fall, a fire breaks out, and destroys those not extricated from the ruins. More than 115 people perish by the awful catastrophe, and 165 are more or less injured."

This mill was built during the 1860's and was acquired by the Slaithwaite Spinning Co in 1902. Next to the mill buildings is the Huddersfield Narrow Canal - this waterway connected Huddersfield in West Yorkshire to Ashton-Under-Lyme in Greater Manchester. Opened in 1811, it had taken 17 years to build, instead of the original plan of 5 years! The main stumbling block had been the construction of Standedge, tunnel through the Peninnes.

Waterloo Mills were erected in1894 for William Broster & Co who manufactured silk sewing threads. Even in 1985 under the ownership of a company called 'Lux Lux' business was booming and the mills were manufacturing a wide range of lingerie and nightwear. Today the premises have been converted into luxury apartments.

Forest Mill was built in 1838 by George Roberts & Co. In 1962 it merged with Robert Noble of Hawick and Walter Thorburn of Peebles. The weaving mill closed in 1967 and the wool store and spinning sections closed in 1973. Today the mill is semi derelict being mostly unoccupied. This photo was taken from a few paces south of Station Road bridge over the mill lade which as can be seen is now choked with vegetation. You can just about make out where the mill lade disappears into a tunnel under the middle building. This is one of the few remaining traces of Selkirk's Mill Lade.

Pinkerton mill on the Teeswater river in Pinkerton, Brockton, Bruce County. The original grist mill on this site was built in the 1850's by David Pinkerton. But fire and mills have historically had a fatal attraction to each other and this one is no exception. The first mill burnt in 1896. The second mill burnt down in 1928. This present mill closed down operations as a feed mill in 1999.
