Hammer mill restored at Gravendal


The old water-powered hammer mill at Gravendal, where many Elgs worked as blacksmiths, has been restored to working order. More photos can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/len_elg/sets/72157628668037499/

Hello. My family (the Hellsings) also worked at the Gravendal hammer. I will be visiting there today (my second visit, the first was in 1992). I live in San Francisco, CA, USA.

Great photo. I love it when historical places can be restored instead of demolished. Too many of them are being lost.
