Scope & content | Summary Translation A collection of articles about the wind, water and horse-driven mills of the Preussisch Oldendorf region of North Rhine-Westphalia. It covers the types of mill and their technology, the relationship between millers, customers and the authorities, the development of milling in the Preussisch Oldendorf area, with extracts from the regulations governing mills. It goes on to describe in detail 24 named mills, including information about the millers in each case. The last three pages contain a list summarising the information about each mill: location, type, date of construction or first mention, additional uses, date of closure, name, and any other remarks. There is a map showing the location of each mill described, and the booklet is copiously illustrated with photos, drawings and diagrams and reproductions of documents. |
