Hi Gabel & Don,

I took plenty of photos of the mill but unfortunately release of these is currently embargoed due to the damage incurred to the mill. This mill is featured on the back of every 25c coin in Barbados and so it is of some importance to the islanders with the owners being somewhat sensitive about the repair process.

All of the chattel houses shown have side wall (eaves) entry and the gable entry in the second picture is of a more modern building. I have no knowledge about internal construction details or about the timber employed however the mill employs greenheart timber from Guyana.

Regards

Ken Hume
