My mother grew up in Holmfield and the mill was a huge part of the village

Loved this. Thank you!!! Could you return for a tour of the steam engine floor (and the second floor)?

[@brucebee2525]

Amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[@sevenbellsfold6257]

Excellent video and truly an amazingly well preserved part of our history. I wish it was open to the public, I would be first in line to buy a ticket.

[@willmcauley2373]

There are tours offered from time to time. I’m not sure when the next one will be.

[@sevenbellsfold6257]

@@willmcauley2373 I and some other people would be interested in a tour. Is there a notification list I could put my name on?

[@willmcauley2373]

I will bring it up with some of the people who can do tours. No guarantees but we might be able to work something out.

[@sevenbellsfold6257]

@@willmcauley2373 thank you

[@willmcauley2373]

You bet. Sounds like there might be some tours next summer. My family owns the mill so that might be an option. If you contact one of the Harrison’s, I’m sure something could be arranged.

My folks when they rebuild an old farm in Carberry redid the kitchen cabinets and walls with wood from an abandoned elevator that had smoothed, water like textures. Totally original.

[@derekabs6535]

Awesome video! I love the history!

[@zach13mlb1]

Very cool! keep up the great videos

[@keithwarkentin]

Gordon that was in my opinion the best video yet I was hoping you would ask if a belt broke on the middle of the power shaft would they have to take all the belts off to replace the one or could they repair the belt without going through all that? And your description at the end of the video was inspiring after you said that I was thinking ya any minute now it’s going to start up again!!😀I think the owner appreciated your words to I could tell by the look on his face!! Good job keep the videos coming your doing a great service!

[@willmcauley2373]

The belts could be repaired without taking any extras off in most cases. Special leather sewing equipment allowed this. Bill would go through the mill before the milling season started and check for any belts that needed replacement.

[@bertski60]

great channel!!

[@Ryanfry262]

I’m friends with the owner’s descendant, and there is lots of interesting history there

[@rickhadfield1097]

Will this ever be put up for sale so that we can preserve this historical monument

[@sarahmarzoff5651]

If your interested in selling one of those signs,or a bag,let me know thank you...
