Summary
| Description |
English: Preston Mill Preston Mill is a 17th century building although grain has been milled on this site since the 12th century. The mill was extensively renovated in 1760 and is still functional. The present wheel is of iron with wooden paddles, measures 3.4m in diameter and drives two mill stones. This shows the drying room. The wheat was placed on a floor and raked by the miller whilst a fire burnt underneath. Needless to say this building has suffered from fire on a number of occasions. The mill was presented to the National Trust for Scotland in January 1950. |
