The Mill by leggzy

The Mill

Originally an old flour mill, building commenced in 1859 and was completed in 1861.....supplying flour to all the bakeries in the region. It has closed & reopened many times over the years, with one venture being a soap manufacturing facility during WW2, supplying soap to the ANZACS for their ration packs. Most recent years it has been a wine cellar door & restaurant.....but unfortunately is now closed down again. It has also been restored a few times over the years to get it to the condition it is in now. I have no doubt that it will one day reopen again, probably as another restaurant. I drive past this old mill practically every day, so thought I should stop & get a shot to include in my project....as it is a lovely old building :)

I am late posting today's photo as I've been super busy - will get back to commenting over the weekend.....have a good one :)
A lovely looking building. If those walls could talk it sounds like they'd have plenty of stories to tell :)
