Kidorry   188 #3 Posted January 28, 2021 There was a building on top of them and by the side was a runway for water that went into Ibbotsons rolling mill on the other side of the road. Probably did have a water wheel but when we used it, it was empty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
