This isn't far from me. The article says it's in but it's actually . I've been inside the several times and seen where his equipment was set up.

@druid This is fairly local for me too and, for shame, I've never visited.

@Denes I'm not sure if they ever open it now. I haven't been to the candle workshop there for a few years. I'll ask them next time I go and will let you know. The waterwheel and all of the internal workings were replaced several years ago, with the intention of milling flour again. Unfortunately they used the wrong type of wood so the health inspector wouldn't allow as it could attract insects. All that time and money wasted. Would be amazing to get it productive again.

@druid Oh no! What a shame - it would have been great if it could have been restored. Thanks in advance for checking; I definitely want to go check it out.
