Mill being restored with scaffolding alongside the engine house. The chimney is still to receive its name in large white letters but is mighty fine with an oversailing cap. The engine house was obviously for a horizontal engine, presumably with rope drive. It's a gorgeous example but I've seen little about it in print. The silver Cougar was my wheels at the time.
