A selection of items rescued from the
old cowsheds and stable block before their renovation and from around
the Mill are now exibited in the Miller's Store. You might even find
yourself saying "We used to have one of those!" |

| A paraffin oil heater and lamp on top
of a cupboard flank an iron ladle used when melting lead. Grease guns
and a home-made spanner lay on the bench next to unreturned sacks,
and pieces of leather belting and an iron ring, chain and hook hang
from the roof beams. |
| The miller was obviously also a cobbler,
using portions of leather belting and a cobblers last for repairs.
Behind are some kitchen scales, also some iron wedges used to split
logs. On the floor under the bench are a chicken feeder, a water trough
and a drinking fountain from the cowshed where a nesting box was also
found. Standing by the wall are a honey extractor, a turf lifting
spade, a wide fork, a leek planting tool and a besom brush, with a
scythe, an axe, a long cleaning brush and various oddments hanging
from the rack above. |
