New on 500px : The Lost Mills by Brains11 by Brains11

There was a lot of thick mist during my latest trip to Kinderdijk. After about one and a half hour it slowly disappeared after sunrise. I took 3 shots in that period of time, the first one while I could hardly see a thing, the second when the closest windmill started to show up and the last one when the other mills slowly became visible. Of course my gear was not moved during that time. In post I blended these 3 images and this was the final result………..

The post mill is the earliest type of European windmill. The defining feature is that the whole body of the mill that houses the machinery is mounted on a single vertical post, around which it can be turned to bring the sails into the wind. The earliest post mills in England are thought to have been built in the 12th century. The earliest working post mill in England still used today is to be found at Outwood in Surrey. It was built in 1665. The earliest remaining example of a non-operational mill can be found in Great Gransden in Cambridgeshire, built in 1612. Their design and usage peaked in the 18th and 19th centuries and then declined after the introduction of high-speed steam-driven milling machinery. Many still exist today, primarily to be found in Northern Europe and Great Britain. The term peg mill or peg and post mill (in which the “post” was the tailpole used to turn the mill into the wind) was used in north west England, and stob mill in north east England, to describe mills of this type.

This waterwheel powers the Loranger Gristmill which was built in approximately 1830 on Stony Creek in Monroe, Michigan. As part of Henry Ford’s passion to preserve history, the mill was relocated to Greenfield Village where this image was taken.
