Millstones



Hundreds of millstones, in various stages completion, were abandoned when the market for them dried up in the late 1800s.
  
This stone tells a story. 
It was well on the way to completion after many weeks of work with hand tools...........





..........when, it appears, a large lump of stone broke off, making it useless. 
One can only imagine how blue the air was!
