The millstone graveyard
Reminders of times gone by,
Of stone before steel.
This part of the Peak District in Derbyshire is littered with abandoned millstones, that were cut and shaped from the millstone grit in the area. Often you will find them in singles or small groups, but here there are a great many. There is also a track that would have been used to transport the finished millstones to the railway at Grindleford.
