Well done Cromwell, I love looking through all the posters that you put on site O0 :flower: :cat:

Thankyou :smitten: :smitten:

Rupert, that is beautiful, and you know you are enjoying every minute mill hunting, the tribe of millers is getting bigger each day, I thankyou all for all the help. Now Rupert, you have wrote such a lovely poem there I'm going to be cheeky and ask if I can incorporate it my research...

Iv'e managed to find out about the Windmill of Coleshill, it was situated at Cole End and was a brick and stone tower mill, it was built before 1783. It had a tower put on without sails or a cap in the 1880's. By the early 20th century the windmill was reduced to a low stump with a slated roof...

Did anyone see Midlands Today last night, if so did you see mills are making a come back, even though it was a rice mill, my hat goes of to Tony Deep, who has worked very hard to be where he is today, he has spent £6 million pound on the mill and his buisness looked brilliant, new technolgy...

Thanks Aston, yes I already have those ones, the one by Salford reservoir is a question mark, but will look up my records on that one, thanks once again :smitten: :flower: :cat:

Aaahaa, Rupert you seem to be aquainted with our cat to, except he don't use a plastic pouch to stick or clean his teeth, our cat uses a giant plastic scrubbing brush, that has seen better days, you move it and he sticks his teeth in you. Absolutley briiliant, I can really relate to that poem...

Thanks Harbourne, done and dusted it :smitten: :cat:

John why can't I print the top piece of that you put on, it's about Phillip's Mill, and it's not allowing me to copy :'( :'( :'( :'( :flower: :cat:

Hi Peter, it's a brilliant site, I got the basic info on some of the mills from there, the rest has come from trawling the net, library books, countless hours in the reference sections of different libraries and from this web ring, my next encounter will be with Birmingham Central Library, so...

Thankyou my friend :smitten: :flower: :cat:

I think my sneaky feeling was right, except I got the wrong part of the country, just looked it up, and there is a picture on the Francis Frith page of Blyth Bridge Tearoom, Old Mill Road , Scotland, so the answer to your question Cromwell is no never had a cup of tea there, never been to...

Cromwell the more I look at that Blyth Bridge tea room, I have a sneaky feeling that it's not in Warwickshire, but down south somewhere, am I right or wrong. Reason being is, I've been to Blythe Mill and there isn't no tearooms there, the mill itself is away from the house and to small to house...

Cromwell, if that picture is of Coleshill, then the answer is no, way before my time :2funny: Sylvia, I'm already registered at the Miller's Society, they give some very good info O0 Aston, lovely picture of the mill, one of the mills that I am researching has connections with a mill in...

Brilliant as usual Cromwell :smitten: :flower: :cat:
