More about the book
The narrative centers on Howsham Mill, a historic structure built in 1755, originally serving local farmers until its closure in 1947. After years of neglect, a discovery in 2003 sparked efforts by the Renewable Heritage Trust to restore the mill, transforming it into a modern educational center. Today, the mill features a waterwheel and Archimedes Screw turbines, generating hydro-electricity while preserving its architectural charm and historical significance, thus bridging the past with sustainable practices for the future.
