I was attracted to the reflections in the millrace at Burwell-Morgan Mill. I’ve posted numerous pictures of this mill in the past, partly because an art show draws me here twice a year.
By the time this grist mill was constructed in the 18th century, the technology for water-powered mills had been refined over hundreds of years. The stream that powered the mill wheel was channeled into a millrace that narrowed the flow of water to increase its power.
This mill has an interior water wheel. On certain Saturdays, they still grind corn here.
