Updated welcome page at the Mills Archive 🌍

The dawn of a new year encourages people to "spring clean" their websites, (you may have noticed that effect as you look around this site!) and the Mills Archive is no exception.

The items on the Mill Archive welcome page now include:

• Featured mill: Nixey's Mill, Brill, Buckinghamshire which was subject to an extensive renovation in 2009.
• Featured person: Frank Gregory whose milling collection of 40,000 items is currently being digitized by the Archive.
• Recent additions of
  • Waterwheel at Killhope Lead Mining Centre
  • Saving the last vestige of an Essex Windmill
  • French tide mill at Veules-les-Roses

These replace the previous featured contents, which covered Willesborough Mill, Ashford, Kent; Stanley Freese; and the floodwater at Mapledurham, July 2007.
