Water wheel & Mackenzie Aluminium plant of linden, Guyana

The Christianburg Waterwheel located on Burnham Drive, Christianburg, Linden, was installed as part of a hydro-powered sawmill on the plantation sometime during the latter half of the 1800s. This hydro-powered sawmill was needed to improve the production of logs and reducing the cost associated with it. The waterwheel is regarded as one of the earliest engineering structures to be built in the town.
