TL5966 : Stevens' Mill, Burwell - stone floor
taken 8 years ago, near to Burwell, Cambridgeshire, England
Stevens' Mill, Burwell - stone floor
This shows two sets of underdrift stones and it appears there was originally another set to the right.
the vertical mainshaft carries on down to the great spur wheel below. At the top is the crown wheel to drive the auxiliaries. As I recall it the only surviving auxiliary is now the sack hoist. This shot is straight out of the camera with no adjustment. I had resorted to my Lumix compact as I killed the lens on my DSLR at the first site of the day!
