More about this scene

The rear of the mill is behind the trees on the left; note the two sluice gates, one of which is in the open position. The trees show the rural aspect of this area, which is particularly noticeable looking from the island towards the mill. That view became a popular picture postcard.

Sad day when the old mill was pulled down. When I was growing up the schools used to have class visits to the mill to explain how it all worked, imagine that.
