Millrace or Sluice gate on the River Don
These Millraces or Sluice gates were used to control the flow of water from the river Don into the Mill Lades flowing down to the Grandhome Mills further downstream.
The Crombie company, which produces high-end wool and tweed clothing, was founded in Aberdeen, Scotland in 1805. The Grandholm Woollen Mill in Aberdeen was the A-listed factory building where Crombie's clothing was originally made (Crombie Jackets), although this gate has been out of use for many decades - actual production from the Mills ceased in Aberdeen in 1990 - the area has now been redeveloped as the residential area - Grandholm Village.
