A fascinating place to visit if you get the chance. The river was teeming with trout, and we watched them swimming through the fast water beside the mill wheel. The ducks are very handsome and contented too.
The mill clock was installed to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo, which was fought on the 18th June 1815. Anyone who feels so inclined may like to raise a glass on Thursday. Napoleon fans are excused.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely place to be in White Church!

DeleteI would love to visit a silk mill - I saw a wool mill in Wales once, and it fascinated me.
ReplyDeleteThe colours of the threads were amazing, but I couldn't get any decent pictures inside the mill because the light was a bit dull. Wonderful machinery.
