Description
This fine example of an English tower mill was built in 1819 for the brothers Thomas and Isaac Reckitt by the Hull millwrights Norman and Smithson, for the sum of £1,826 – 10s – 6d.
By the time the present owners, the Waterfield family, arrived on the scene in June 1987, the condition of the mill had deteriorated considerably, but the main aim was to put Maud Foster Mill back into working order.
These days the mill grinds approximately 5 tons of wheat per week and is open to the public.

What a very clear and outstanding picture!!! Love the point of view, and the mill, very much.

I knew I should have looked at the mill before the hub :-D. This is an excellent subject and a fine photo. Love the fact that it is back in working order. I imagine the cost to get it running again was many, many times what the mill originally cost:)
Greta composition. Love the angle that the shot was taken at.
