Mill

LES HOUARDS

06.01.22

Les Houards farm, situated in the rural lanes of the Forest. I’m not sure what the wind mill was used for but I can only assume it was some sort of early wind turbine for powering the farm.

LES NIAUX

11.11.21

Les Niaux mill, half way up Talbot Valley with a recently renovated hardwood wheel which is fully operational and provide power to a heat pump in the house. Apparently there’s been a mill on this site since the mid 1300’s. Originally used to grind corn, it was later converted to shred rags for the padding in uniforms.

CHRISTMAS STREET

22.12.20

The shortest day has passed but the nights are still long. It’s cold and wet but if you look around closely, there’s daffodils starting to appear. Spring will be here before you know it but for now, enjoy the cosy nights in front of the TV and Christmas with the people you love.
