Fascinating old water mill

and I wonder how it worked. There is nothing left except this old wall. There is a river behind it and they must have had plenty of water back then.

such a pretty bit of forest

[Susan Wakely]

Such a pretty area. I am guessing that the river was big enough and fast enough for there to have been a Mill here.

How fascinating to find this on the property. Do you suppose it was used as part of the winery at one time?

[Merrelyn]

There is so much to see on this fabulous estate. I wonder what the history is of the water mill.

So different from your winery photos, I love it!

[Corinne C]

What a beautiful place, the flowers in the grass and the dappled light, everything is so pretty!

[Rick]

Lovely capture. Yeah, doesn't show much in the way that a mill could function.

[Shutterbug]

Looks like it’s returning to nature. Beautiful capture.

[Diana]

@grammyn I really could not find out Katy, it is quite far from the winery or the gardens ;-)

[Paula Fontanini]

Intriguing capture. I suppose time changes everything but wouldn't it be interesting to know the story behind it.

[Issi Bannerman]

Nicely captured. I love all those daisies in the foreground and the pops of red on the tree on the left of the photo.

[John Falconer]

Nicely done Diana. You have to do some research now as to why they needed a well???

[katy]

@ludwigsdiana probably not then, but it makes one wonder

[Michelle]

Lovely capture, shame they haven't put the history on the sign
