The engine dates from the late 1830s and originally powered the textile mill. In 1923 a small Escher Wyss water turbine with electricity generating plant was installed in a new building adjacent to the beam engine house to provide power to the Dunecht Estate. Garlogie Mill and the beam engine ceased operation in 1904 and the generating plant stopped in 1954 when the national grid came to the area. The mill is situated in the beautiful Garlogie Conservation Area. </p><p>On the day, visitors will be able to see around the two buildings that remain and view the beam engine and turbine. Guides will be on hand to explain the operation of the equipment alongside information panels and models. You will also be able to hear about plans for the future of the mill and beam engine.</p><p>Disabled Access to the Turbine House but not the Beam Engine House.</p> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Late 1830s
