Stevens' Mill, Burwell - external drive
Stevens' Mill, Burwell - external drive
If I recall correctly this is where the drive from an external pulley can be fed into the great spur wheel (on the left) to drive the mill on a still day. There is an external drive pulley that could be belted to a portable steam engine or (in later times) a tractor.
