Tesson Mill water wheel

(continued from yesterday)



There's a public footpath behind the mill (leads to Mt Fallu and Quetivel Mill) from where we see...






.. the courtyard pictured yesterday, with access via steps/railings...









.. to a viewing platform.









Down there on the steps...








.. along here...








(looking back)








.. to the wheel...








.. closer... the wheel in motion.







Info board there...









.. if you can read it :)








Outside, back on the footpath again...









.. looking at the viewing area...








.. and again. Nicely restored, isn't it?

Heritage IV - Tesson Mill

Open day at Tesson Mill where the mill is being converted into flats, but one room is left as a mini-museum exhibit, along with a viewing platform for the water wheel. It was very wet and dull weather, so don't expect great pics with the place looking its best!
(on Google maps)


From the parking field, waiting for the rain to stop.








Stonework.







From the lane by the brook...







.. hoping for a good angle and reflection, but it wasn't to be!









.. closer.







Just inside the property, off the lane...







.. looking back.







Farther in, looking back. In the corner where the people are...







.. a wet display board.






.. or two...








.. left one, for what it's worth...









.. right one, if you can read it.













Inside the single room, and looking to the left...







.. more info panels down there...









.. looking back from there.







A casually grabbed snap of a model in a glass case, with blur. No flash.




Tomorrow, the water wheel outside.
