Mills

NOTES: The Anglo-Saxon mill at Tamworth was excavated by the CBA (Council for British Archaeology) in 1971 and 1978. In 1979 Frederick Charles was commissioned to undertake a feasibility study for a full-size working reconstruction and a model was made for this purpose by him, including a full-size replica of a wheel paddle as seen here.

NOTES: The mill building dates back before the 19th century and was still in use up to 1957 (corn being ground until 1947 and china clay until 1957). The china clay was ground through water turbine generated electricity. The architects Michael and Inette Austin-Smith converted the mill into a house with a gallery on the top floor in 1980, making use of the mill's hydro-electric power to provide heating and lighting. See RIBA109844 for a very similar version in colour.
