Sandhaven Meal Mill, Sandhaven

Dublin Core

Title

Sandhaven Meal Mill, Sandhaven

Description

This is a fine example of an early 19th century rectangular mill and kiln. Sandhaven meal mill is unique in that all the machinery survives, including the electric motor, which provided power in the last years of its working life; other fittings include a built-in hinged top desk used by the miller. This is a fascinating way to learn how oatmeal used to be ground in this typical Scottish meal mill. Guided tours will be provided, there is also a seating area where a DVD of the mill will be shown for those who are unable to access all 3 floors.
