(They are only some of the ones in the mill. There were four runs of buhrs. The upper and lower pairs are called a run.) The mill was built in 1790, but these were probably replaced sometime between then and 1913 when my father was born. They do wear down and need to be sharpened. solarityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606487180967915130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487713068002286095.post-60971831676419048272013-07-15T09:27:53.798-04:002013-07-15T09:27:53.798-04:00That is awesome!

After the mill was torn down after my grandparents sold it, my father hauled it out of the water and restored it, and when we sold his house I had it brought out to the new house, and when I sold that one I had it all moved here to the city. solarityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03606487180967915130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5487713068002286095.post-22184174201964811812013-07-10T09:32:48.990-04:002013-07-10T09:32:48.990-04:00You have a mill stone in your yard!!You have a mill stone in your yard!!the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11157365223433690437noreply@blogger.com
