We had that same type o' mill at East Moaness, my father made a winch oot o' it for haulin' the boat, changed the gearing around, it was slow but powerfull.

Hi
Can anyone provide any info on these items or photos in working or restored condition?
My father in law has recently unearthed a similar machine
Many thanks in advance
Steve
