Please act now to support traditional mills! The mandatory fortification of flour means new machines to precisely dose the flour. Their use will threaten the integrity, historic character and sustainability of our mills. Please support an exemption for small mills. By 23rd Nov!

Here is the second mill from our recent trip to Machynlleth. Ffatri Isaf, Abercegir. A fulling mill that closed in 1964. The large water powered wooden hammers beat cloth until the fibres knitted together. One of only two compete fulling mills left.

Dyma Felin Crewi, Penegoes, ger Machynlleth. Sefai melin yma ers yr 16ed ganrif. Stopiodd falu yn 1940. Fe gychwynodd eto yn 1985 ond yn awr mae yn lety gwylie.

Great turn out at our Autumn meeting in Machynlleth! Dr David Gwyn provided a fascinating talk on how water powered the slate industry, and Glyn Roberts gave us an uplifting update on the restoration of Melin Daron. And we visited three traditional mills in the afternoon.
