Turner Mill
Once you turn off Hwy 19 you will travel on a gravel road that descends for approximately 6 miles on Federal Road (FR) #3152 then continues for another 3 miles on FR#3190. These gravel roads although level have some large rocks in them so your decent should be at a low speed pace. Once there and after seeing the wheel be sure and explore the area searching out the source of the spring. I am including a picture from the internet of what the mill looked like when it was operational. Closest Towns: Alton, Winona. Directions: Turner Mill North is located off of MO Scenic Hwy 19, approx. 11 miles north of Alton, or approx. 15 miles south of Winona. From Alton, travel North on Hwy 19 approx. 11 miles to FR#3152 on your right. Or, from Winona, travel South on Hwy 19 approx. 14.9 miles to FR#3152 on your left. Go approx. 6 miles on FR#3152, then turn right onto FR#3190 for approx. 2.6 miles to the access area. Turner Mill has a north and south access, on both sides of the river. If you want to see the old mill site and spring, you will want to visit Turner Mill North. It is about 9 miles off the highway down some gravel roads, but it is definitely worth the trip. All that remains from the old mill is a giant metal water wheel, which sits in the middle of the spring branch. The spring itself comes from a small cave entrance at the base of a very tall bluff. The entire area is very scenic and beautiful.
Near the Sheepscar junction. I think that sad gutterfull of water is Meanwood Beck. It kept starting to snow, and I would have liked to get this picture with visible snowflakes, but I gave up waiting for it to look good enough.

The building's been demolished.
This well-hidden stone mill was built in 1850 on the Chipuxet River. It is now home to Custom Laminates and Hardwood Design.
A roller mill, possibly. 'Great Western Mfg. Co., Leavenworth, Kan.'
Built on the upper north fork of the White River in 1895, the Topaz Mill was the center of the village known as Topaz. Today the mill is privately owned and very well preserved with the origional machinery still inside.

Beck's Mill is located in Southern Indiana near Salem in Washington Co. It is one of the oldest standing mills in the state. Much of the machinery still remains within the building and a local group has been formed to help in the restoration of the mill.

My friend Sarah came to visit this weekend. Proving I know how to show a girl a good time, I took her to a tour of the historic Yate's Mill, which is about ten minutes from my house. This grist mill was built in 1756 and is fully restored and functional. I have been driving by this place for years and am glad to finally have had a look inside. Sarah tried to steal a 196 pound barrel full of cornmeal and was summarily tarred, feathered, and run out of town on a rail. I hadn't seen that before either. Neat.
If someone recognizes these falls, could you help me out with the name? Maybe I will be heading by there tomorrow when we pick Ian up...or before the grand fireworks show..who knows.
Lanterman's Mill is a historic landmark located in Youngstown, Ohio, USA. Built in the mid-1800s, the mill was originally used for grinding grains into flour and cornmeal. It was later converted into a hydroelectric power plant before being restored and turned into a museum. Today, visitors can explore the mill and learn about its history, as well as enjoy the surrounding park and hiking trails. Lanterman's Mill is a popular destination for both tourists and locals alike, and is a testament to the region's rich industrial and agricultural heritage.
Derwent Valley Mills is a World Heritage Site along the River Derwent in Derbyshire, England, designated in December 2001. It is administered by the Derwent Valley Mills Partnership. The modern factory, or 'mill', system was born here in the 18th century to accommodate the new technology for spinning cotton developed by Richard Arkwright. With advancements in technology, it became possible to produce cotton continuously. The system was adopted throughout the valley, and later spread so that by 1788 there were over 200 Arkwright-type mills in Britain. Arkwright's inventions and system of organising labour was exported to Europe and the United States.
Water-power was first introduced to England by John Lombe at his silk mill in Derby in 1719, but it was Richard Arkwright who applied water-power to the process of producing cotton in the 1770s. His patent of a water frame allowed cotton to be spun continuously and meant it could be produced by unskilled workers. Cromford Mill and Cromford was the site of Arkwright's first mill, and his system of production and worker's housing was copied throughout the valley.
What I love about this photo is the way these two spinster ladies are sitting squeezed together on one half of the bench when the whole other half of the bench remains empty. I imagined that they came to that spot every afternoon and sat side by side like that, reading what closer inspection reveals to be Mills & Boon novels! Do these provide the romance that their lives have sadly lacked...?

The majestic mill, which has been a landmark of the town for more than 140 years, was acquired by Magna Holdings Ltd in 2004. It is now having a multi-million pound make-over to restore it to it’s former glory.

Roebbecke Mill
On this site in 1859 Friederick Roebbecke built a seventy foot high wooden windmill for grinding corn and grain. Situated on a prominent ridge, it commanded an excellent view of the scattered settlement. Barricaded with sacks of flour and grain, the mill was an important defense otupost in New Ulm during the 1862 Sioux uprising. On Saturday, August 23, intense fighting occurred about the mill, held by a small group of defenders. That evening it was fired and abandoned. Two days later New Ulm was evacuated. The settlers soon returned and reconstructed the settlement, but the windmill was never rebuilt.
